Chemistry is one of the most significant subjects of our time. More and more modern science goes “deep” into substances and micro laws.
According to a professor of astronomy, life in the universe is possible thanks to the carbon atom with its unusual properties. And a rare child does not once ask the question: “How does this work?”
Space technology and energy issues also require chemical knowledge. The discipline has been taught in Russian schools since 1927. School reforms have rocked the curriculum more than once, but in 2012 educators declared a nationwide disaster for school chemistry. The USE certificate in chemical education was no longer required for admission to a technical university.
The abundance of educational literature led teachers to a dead end, as it divided the learning process into linear and concentric systems. Disputes to return to a single system are still ongoing.
The modern school curriculum devotes a small number of hours to the curriculum in the subject, and the variety of recommended textbooks plays a negative role. Textbooks only undergo high-quality testing in schools.

How to choose the right study guide
Educational institutions within the framework of compulsory courses give preference to one or another line of training educational and methodological kits. It is important to know that manuals are issued for both students and teachers, in order to correctly present the material and comply with the Federal State Educational Standard for Complete or Secondary Education
Criteria
The criteria for selecting quality textbooks include:
- the ability to consistently master the material from simple to complex;
- accessible explanation of key definitions;
- test tasks and exercises of varying complexity, with the possibility of deepening knowledge;
- compliance with the Federal State Educational Standard and belonging to the CMD;
- availability of links to Internet resources and training CDs;
- the presence of online versions of reshebnikov;
- completion of textbooks with workbooks, tests, guidelines, CD + CD for students and teachers.
Errors when choosing
Following one line of the course is preferable, since the author has his own concept of gradually increasing the level of knowledge.
It is important to remember that when moving from one school to another, there may be a “learning failure” due to the following curriculums of different methodologies.
