VLOOKUP in Geography: everything you need to know!
In 2017, VPRs will be conducted for graduates of 11th grade. According to the schedule approved by Rosobrnadzor, they will be held in April-May in five subjects, including geography and biology. Test options and an assessment system are developed at the federal level, which makes it possible to check the educational achievements of schoolchildren according to uniform criteria. The participation of schools in conducting educational training in the 11th grade is not mandatory; such a decision will be made by the school itself. educational organization. The VPR tasks will include for testing the most significant elements in each academic subject that are important for general development graduate and his life in society.
1. In 2017, the All-Russian Test Work in Geography is being carried out for the first time and is of an experimental and trial nature. This test was organized with the aim of creating a unified educational space in the Russian Federation.
2. Participation in the VPR is voluntary. The decision to participate is made first at the regional level and then at each school individually. It is worth understanding that refusal to participate may be regarded as an attempt to hide the results of studying in geography
3. The task of regional management structures: collect applications from schools, order required quantity control and measuring materials (CMM) and transfer them to the school. Schools organize the conduct of the VPR independently.
4. The order of the ministry determines the date of the work and the time allotted for writing it. The school sets the start time at its discretion.
5. Conducting a VPR does not imply the presence of an outside supervisory observer, but any school or region can introduce it at their own request.
6. There are no restrictions on the use of sources of geographic information that students may need while doing their work. You can bring atlases with you, or you can use those in the geography classroom.
7. Work checks school teacher. The CIMs that the school receives are accompanied by recommendations and evaluation criteria. The teacher informs students of grades and, if necessary, analyzes errors. Individually or in a general consultation. All students' grades are recorded in personal account schools on the VPR portal.
8. Students cannot refuse to participate in the VPR if this test is conducted at their school. Those high school students who choose geography to take the Unified State Exam do not have to write a paper.
9. The VPR does not affect the student’s final grade, is not part of the final state certification, but in the future it can become a test, based on the results of which admission to certification will be carried out.
10. On at this stage The status of the student is not high, so the student cannot appeal.
11. The school itself chooses which grade students will write the work, 10th or 11th. This may be influenced by the factor whether the subject is studied in 11th grade.
12. Writing a VPR does not require any special preparation. Its task is to evaluate the so-called “residual knowledge” with which students go into life.
13. How to prepare a student for work? It is important to understand that there can be no talk of any coaching. The types of tasks are the same, but the questions themselves are fundamentally different. To prevent questions from coming as a surprise, it is necessary to familiarize students with demo version work. It is available on the FIPI website. These are not simulators, but an example of how the work is formed.
14. The VPR contains 17 questions, 5 of which are classified as of increased complexity. The essence of increased complexity is that this particular knowledge was not given at school, but if you have a basic level of training in the subject and the ability to analyze available information, you can cope with it. That is, they are not checked specialized knowledge, and the ability to work with sources (in particular withatlases ), use the information to find the answer.
15. Topics are selected based on mandatory school curriculum: Sources of geographic information (1 task), World population (2 tasks), World economy (4 tasks), Geoecology and environmental management (2 tasks), Countries and regions of the world (2 tasks), Geography of Russia (6 tasks).
16. To successfully complete the work, the student must know: the meaning of basic theoretical concepts; geographical features of nature, population, economy and regions of the Russian Federation; geographical specificity individual countries and regions of the world, their differences in the level of socio-economic development; specialization of countries in the system of international geographical division of labor.
The student must be able to: compare geographic Maps various topics; assess the resource availability of individual countries and regions of the world; highlight the essential features of geographical objects and phenomena; use geographic knowledge and skills to identify differences in time; analyze and evaluate different territories from the point of view of the relationship between natural, socio-economic and man-made processes and phenomena; evaluate international events; identify and compare geographic trends in the development of processes and phenomena.
17. All questions have different wording. Therefore, the types of answers will be different: a short answer in the form of a word; establishing compliance; inserting terms from the proposed list into the text; selecting several correct answers from the proposed list; establishing the correct sequence of elements; detailed free answer.
18. For each basic question, the student receives 1 point, for a question of increased complexity - 2 points. Thus, the maximum number of points that can be obtained for a work is 22. How to convert points into the usual five-point grading system at the trial stage is decided by the teacher who checks the work, but you can use the recommendation, which offers the following breakdown: 18-22 points are equal to a grade “5”, 13-17 - rating “4”, 7-12 - rating “3”, 0-6 - rating “2”.

Not long ago, Russian educational practice was replenished with an innovation in the form of All-Russian knowledge cross-sections (or testing works). VPR - control events organized to certify the knowledge of schoolchildren in several subjects, based on the requirements of the Federal educational standards. Conducting a knowledge test is possible both centrally (at the regional level) and within an individual school.
The main rule is a standardized approach when writing assignments and determining assessment criteria. Of course, writing a VPR is not as scary as passing the final exam certification. However, both students and teachers experience serious stress during the testing period. The results of the VPR do not go to the table - they are used by specialists from educational departments to modernize programs for school disciplines, updating teaching methods, as well as assessing the performance of individual schools and teachers.
VPR is a test for high school students who are already busy preparing for the Unified State Exam
Like any test, VPR presupposes certain preparation, including psychological preparation. So let's find out what the essence of this event is, and also discuss the main organizational issues and features of the verification work carried out in 2019.
As already mentioned, the practice of conducting CPR for Russian schoolchildren was introduced quite recently - the first session of this certification test was held in 2016. Not everyone took part in the experiment then. Russian schools. Literally a year later, the VPR covered 40,000 schools with 3 million students – which is approximately 95% of all secondary schools. educational institutions countries. In 2019, the coverage rate will be increased to 100%.
It is important that the VPR refers to mandatory certification events of an all-Russian nature. The results of this test will show the level of knowledge of a particular student, class, parallel or school, and will also demonstrate professional level teachers who teach children. Like any innovation, VPR is constantly subject to criticism. The dissatisfied are in all categories of people involved in this event.
Moms and dads of eleventh graders are indignant about the fact that in last years the number of controls is constantly increasing. The current list includes 6 items, and it is possible that another one will be added to them in 2019. In addition, the VPR is written before the Unified State Examination, so graduates need to devote time to both the exam disciplines and those that will be taken to the VPR. So far, the Ministry of Education and Science does not allow schools to conduct educational training on the entire list, but who knows what may change in the future.
The second point outrages both teachers and parents. It concerns the lack of a unified manual for preparing for the test. In particular, not so long ago, during a biology lesson, a real scandal broke out, as fifth-graders were faced with questions that are usually studied in the 6th or even 7th grade. Rosobrnadzor reported that each school follows its own curriculum and textbook, selected from a list of 12 publications accredited by the Ministry of Education, so in some schools these issues did not cause difficulties.
Rosobnadzor itself is also dissatisfied with the procedure for conducting the VPR. The agency is concerned about the transparency of control activities. There have been cases when the results of a math test in regular school from the Russian outback, whose students pass the mathematical Unified State Exam quite averagely, were an order of magnitude higher than in a specialized school in a large metropolis. All because teachers, fearing large quantity twos, gave the students answers to the problems. It is likely that in 2019 the department will tighten the procedure by banning teachers from being in the classroom during teaching sessions and sending independent observers to schools.
The number and list of items for VPR are not the same for different classes. Current lists of educational programs include the following school disciplines:
All schools in Russia are required to:
School management has the right to decide how to use the results of the VPR. Based on them, general conclusions can be drawn about the condition educational process, or to set marks based on the results of control events, which will become the final or quarter results of the student. The school has the right to develop its own translation scale, which it will use for assessments of 11th grade students, but for measuring the knowledge of 4th and 5th grades it is recommended to use unified approach, developed by Rosobrnadzor.
As of today, it is not known exactly when the knowledge tests will take place in 2019. Usually the approved schedule appears closer to the beginning of the next school year. However, based on the practice of past years, it is possible to predict the approximate time for carrying out a cross-section of knowledge.
It is not recommended for schools to mark students for completing CDFs. However, many are interested in the question of converting VPR points into a grade. The answer can be found in demo versions of VPR 2018 for 4th grade published on the official website of the VPR StatGrad. Here is the scale of test scores for 2018:
Item | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Evaluation criteria (see the end of the sample) |
mathematics | 0-5 | 6-9 | 10-12 | 13-18 | download |
Russian language | 0-13 | 14-23 | 24-32 | 33-38 | download |
the world | 0-7 | 8-17 | 18-26 | 27-32 | download |
The VPR evaluation criteria can be found in the demo version.
No special preparation is required for the test. The controlled content is reflected in the textbooks included in the Federal List of Textbooks recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation for use in the implementation of educational programs of primary general education that have state accreditation.
The conversion of VPR 2018 points into grades for 4th grade is almost the same as in 2017, with the exception of the world around us, where the maximum score has been increased to 38 (from 37).
