MODERN APPROACHES TO ORGANIZING LABORATORY WORKS AND PRACTICAL EXPERIMENTS ON MOLECULAR-KINETIC THEORY (ON THE EXAMPLE OF "SCIENCE" IN NATURAL SCIENCES)
Abstract
The article emphasizes that laboratory work in the study of molecular-kinetic theory serves not only to reinforce theoretical knowledge but also as a crucial tool for shaping students' scientific worldview. It demonstrates the positive results of increasing the efficiency of the educational process through modern approaches, interdisciplinary integration, and the application of innovative technologies.
