All-Russian verification works
The abbreviation VPR (All-Russian verification work) entered our lives in 2016. “Conduct VPR”, “Prepare for VPR”, “Cancel VPR” sounds almost as familiar as “passing the exam”. However, it does not prevent the reader from checking what he knows about CDF.
After the abolition of final and intermediate exams (this happened in the zero years), education leaders lost the opportunity to make a continuous cut of schoolchildren's knowledge. And only in 2016, in the wake of the success of the National Research on the Quality of Education, in Russia they decided to fill this gap with the help of uniform control tests for the whole country.
Schools, municipalities and regional departments of education are recommended to analyze the results of the VPR and clarify whether the knowledge of schoolchildren meets federal state standards.
All is well and all is well. But this extra check becomes a headache for teachers, parents and children.
The All-Russian test work is not an exam, but a monitoring that is carried out to determine the level of preparation of schoolchildren in all regions of Russia.
Therefore, VPR is regulated by the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation dated January 27, 2017 No. 69 “On Monitoring the Quality of Education”.
This is the youngest of the monitoring studies in education. He is only two years old. But during this time, 95/% of all Russian schoolchildren have already taken part in it.
By the way, saying “pass the VPR” is not accurate. More correctly - "write VLOOKUP".
VPR were conceived for voluntary testing of knowledge of schoolchildren.
Optional subjects of the VPR are in the testing mode: they are chosen by the school itself to check the level of preparation of students.
In 2018, All-Russian test papers for grades 4 and 5 are mandatory, but not for grades 6 and 11.
But even in optional subjects, one cannot refuse to participate in the VPR: this decision is made not by the student or his parents, but by the school.
However, in reality, the school itself does not always choose the subjects of the VPR. Most often choose a school.
The decision is made by the regional Department or the Ministry of Education. It is they who are instructed by Rosobrnadzor to form a representative sample of schools for VPR.
For example, in 2018, at least 60% of schools in each subject of the Russian Federation should participate in the All-Russian testing work on the Russian language for grades 2 and 5.
Officials of the regions and municipalities are instructed to include in this number 10% of urban and the same number of rural educational organizations with the highest and lowest results of the state final certification in grades 9 and 11.
Simply, according to the results of the OGE and the Unified State Examination, the regional authorities determine the level of the school and its place in the regional or local ranking. If your school is listed among the very best or, conversely, goes chronically backward, it may be on the list of participants in the VPR in some subjects without even wanting to.
Unfortunately, last year, parents, teachers and directors complained that it was for them (and, most importantly, at the last moment) to decide whether their school would take part in the All-Russian testing work in this or that subject.
This question worries both teachers and parents. The tasks of the control tests that are common for schools are compiled at the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements (FIPI) taking into account the new state standards (FGOS).
It is very difficult to obtain official permission to interview GIA or VPR writers, even if you are well acquainted with these scientists.
The ideologists of the new type of monitoring say that they were guided by the tasks of the comparative international study PISA, in which schoolchildren from Russia failed at least twice.
PISA questions are focused on the practical application of school knowledge in real situations. Russian specialists who develop tasks for the VPR are also striving for this international "bar".
However, the variants of the All-Russian test papers for high school also include traditional tasks that experienced teachers have already met in the demos of the OGE and the USE.
“- In the demo versions of the VPR, I came across a lot of tasks from the OGE for the 9th grade,” says Ksenia Gennadievna Pudovkina, a teacher of geography and biology at school No. 2 in the city of Sim, Ashinsky district, Chelyabinsk region. - VPR in my subject meets federal standards, therefore, in many tasks, not knowledge is checked, but the ability to work with information.
“- If the subject was taught in the system from the 5th to the 11th grades, the student is able to write a VPR on it,” many teachers believe. - Assignments of the All-Russian verification work - the basic level, no subtleties were used in them.
“- My children and I solved the demo version of the VPR - and no one wrote for a deuce in the class. Do the same!” said others.
Last year, Russian language teachers who prepared children for the federal test found questions of a higher level in the assignments for grade 5 - on topics in grades 6 and 7, which schoolchildren had not yet taken.
If you are not sure about the knowledge of children, it is better to open the demo version of the VLOOKUP on the FIPI website and get acquainted with the tasks. The Russian language is the subject that never hurts to do.
Some teachers, during the All-Russian test work in biology for the 5th grade, found in the VPR several tasks on topics that were understood only in textbooks for the 6th and even for the 7th grade.
“- After this test work in biology, the children are very worried,” one of the mothers said, “Some of my daughter’s classmates lacked one point for the school triple, someone - two points for the school four. For them, it's a lot of stress. And in fact, almost all the tasks of the VPR that were given to our children were NOT according to the 5th grade program.
“Currently, there is no single biology program for grade 5,” the Rosobrnadzor responded to a request from teachers of this subject. - In general educational organizations of the Russian Federation ... work programs of 12 different teams of authors can be used.
However, if your school has already passed the VPR in biology, it means that you are familiar with the problem and have drawn conclusions.
The second difficult subject of the All-Russian verification work was history.
“The results of the VPR in history showed that schoolchildren in grades 5 and 11 do not know enough the history of their native land and famous historical figures, they are not able to establish causal relationships between historical events and analyze different types of sources of historical information,” said Sergey Kravtsov, head of Rosobrnadzor.
At the VPR on history for the 5th grade, there were indeed questions on the history of the native land. One teacher from a small town, for example, analyzed the training tasks of the VPR and calculated that the children would be asked a question about their famous countrymen. His class learned the answer in advance (the milestones had only one famous countryman). And at the VPR, the class was asked to name a historical event associated with their small homeland. What the fifth graders wrote instead - no need to explain. The embarrassment was complete, and the school discussed for a long time whether it was possible to reformulate the VPR question so as not to give the whole class low scores.
This year, some students may have difficulty with the CWP in geography: the school must decide for itself whether they will take it in 10 or 11 grades.
By the way, she can solve it at the last moment (see above).
So that the children are not nervous, here is a free VLOOKUP simulator in geography, which conveniently opens and gives hints:
“-VPR is not only the same measurements and the same tasks that children do all over the country, it is also the same assessment criteria,” emphasizes Sergey Stanchenko, project manager for monitoring studies of NIKO (National Educational Quality Surveys), which became the forerunners of the VPR.
The federal coordinator of the VPR is Rosobrnadzor (Federal Service for Supervision in Education and Science). It should not be confused with FIPI (Federal Institute for Pedagogical Measurements), in which assignments for VPR are compiled.
Rosobrnadzor administers the VPR: it appoints regional coordinators of the All-Russian verification work. They are the Departments and Ministries of Education of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, which form a list of municipal coordinators of the VPR in their constituent entities of the Russian Federation.
Grades for VPR are given to each student according to a special scale developed by Rosobrnadzor of the Russian Federation.
Then the received VPR points are translated into school grades.
If the subject is optional (the school itself chose it to conduct a cross-section of students' knowledge), the transfer to grades is at the discretion of the teachers themselves.
Please note: if in your region it is decided to take into account the grades for the CD in the final assessment, then they should be taken into account for the whole class, and not for individual students.
It cannot be that someone's grade for CDF was credited and put in a journal, but not for other children in the class.
If the subject of the VPR is recognized as compulsory, it is also assessed by school teachers. But in this case, they must give points strictly according to the criteria developed by Rosobrnadzor.
These results are entered in electronic form and, no later than two days later, are uploaded through the school's personal account on the All-Russian Testing Portal.
Let's see what you can get a deuce for at the All-Russian test in mathematics in grade 4.
If the student scored for his work from 0 to 5 points - his knowledge is considered unsatisfactory. Scored 6-9 points - you get a triple, 10-12 - a four, 13-18 points - rejoice, parents and teachers, you have an excellent student!
Russian language in the 4th grade is assessed differently. The one who scored less than 13 points gets a deuce, 14-23 points - a triple, 24-32 points - a four, 33-38 points - a five.
Perhaps this will surprise and disappoint many parents who were convinced: if the test is federal, then the tasks of the VPR should be checked in Moscow.
No, the VPR check takes place on the spot, at the school, immediately after the students turn in their work. This is not done by the computer, but by the teachers themselves.
“We recommend that colleagues collectively check several VPR papers,” Sergey Stanchenko explains the verification algorithm, “see what mistakes the students made in them, and then agree among themselves how to evaluate the results in accordance with federal criteria.”
Teachers can familiarize themselves with the regulations for conducting VPR and samples of test papers on the official website http://vpr.statgrad.org/
All-Russian test papers are written on the same day for the whole country. Moreover: even at the same time.
For VPR in the Russian language in grades 2 and 5, it is recommended, for example, to leave 2-3 lessons in the schedule.
All this imposes a certain responsibility on the school administration.
And we must prepare for the fact that the whole school will be nervous: this is normal when the whole country does the same work at the same time.
Some explain to children like this:
“When we wrote the control RONO in childhood, we were also worried. But we were put a mark in the class magazine for the control, and the school will simply take into account your grades.
Some teenagers object:
“Why then try if they don’t mark the VPR”?
The answer to this is simple: VLOOKUP scores will be announced to the entire class. And this means - those who thoughtlessly reacted to the federal control, are waiting for not the most pleasant moments.
Plus, according to the results of the VPR, all underachievers can be assigned additional classes.
Do you need it? That's the same.
Education leaders claim that it is easy to complete all the tasks of the VPR. It is only necessary not to start classes and not skip school lessons.
Teachers who have studied the demo versions of VLOOKUP in their subject do not always agree with this. They say that only a few students will be able to solve federal test tasks for high scores without preparation.
This fact is indirectly recognized by Rosobrnadzor itself, when DOES NOT recommend to teachers (quote):
How long does it take to prepare for a VPR?
It all depends on the textbook in which the subject is taught, on the class and on the teacher.
“- With children, of course, you will have to repeat everything before the CDF. It took about three lessons for me and my motivated students,” says Evgenia Vladimirovna Zhinkina, a physics teacher at school No. 32 with in-depth study of English in the city of Ozersk, Chelyabinsk region.
The VPR for graduates in the 11th grade was postponed to March and April, so as not to increase the stress that arises when preparing for the Unified State Examination.
In 2018, the latest VLOOKUP in biology for grade 11 will be written on April 12, and the VLOOKUP in history has been moved to March 21st.
In the 2nd grade they will take the Russian language, in the 4th grade - VPR in the Russian language (dictation and tests), mathematics and the subject "The world around us". Time to solve tasks: 45 minutes
In the 5th grade, students are waiting for the VPR in mathematics, biology, history and the Russian language (twice - in October and April). Since 2018, the compulsory VPR in the Russian language has been supplemented with the VPR in history. Fifth graders complete tasks for 60 minutes
In the 6th grade, students will have to take the VPR in the testing mode in the Russian language, mathematics, history, social studies, biology and geography. For 2018, the participation of the school in the VPR for the 6th grade is not mandatory. An educational organization can choose the subject on which it would like to conduct a control section of knowledge.
In the 10th grade, students will pass the VPR in chemistry and biology. In 11 classes - biology, foreign languages, history, chemistry, geography and physics. VPR is chosen by those graduates who do not pass the profile exam in this subject. Schools can conduct, to choose from, in the 10th or 11th grade of the VPR in geography. The time for solving VPR tasks for eleventh graders is 90 minutes.
