ABSTRACT:
The use of techniques and methods in teaching medical students that combine the principles of problem-solving and modeling in educational practice helps to develop their ability to independently acquire new knowledge and collect the necessary information. Many problems that are unsolvable when setting up real experiments turn out to be easily eliminated in computer modeling, increasing the visibility and scientific and theoretical level of presentation of the material. The use of virtual and experimental models provides an opportunity for real representation, as well as visual transformations of objects ranging from the cellular to the system level. The knowledge, skills, and new experience acquired in this process can play an essential role in the development and formation of a person both as a professional and as a person in general. The relevance of the modeling method in preparing presentations for independent work of students plays an important role in the accumulation of material on disciplines, including integrated ones, effectively developing clinical thinking, skills and abilities to work in a team, acquiring skills in modern medical technologies. The purpose of the publication was to use angiohypertensive therapy in hemodialysis as a clinical model and the effectiveness of using current modeling methods in the process of studying topics on the module "Urinary system" in the course of normal physiology for students of a medical university. The modeling method as a competence-based approach and its implementation in the educational process along with innovative teaching technologies will expand the practical skills and professionalism of junior students. In the future, this will increase their creative potential in senior years when studying the discipline "Pathological Physiology".
