Level of fundamental sciences education of graduates was defined on the basis
of the analysis of their progress for all period of studies in high school for series of
general science disciplines: higher mathematics, physics, Russian history, foreign
language, psychology and pedagogy, philosophy, jurisprudence, political science.
For more detailed analysis, FE is divided into natural sciences education (NSE),
social and economic sciences education (SESE) and liberal arts education
(humanitarian training) (LAE). The considered data of graduates' progress for
each of FE series are summarized in Table 5.4 - 5.5.
According to data from Table 5.4 eight (as per number of disciplines) COSS's
are constructed with "knowledge of graduates” titles. All COSS's have terms
"C”,"B”, "A" with membership functions of
T
-numbers or normal triangular
numbers. Being constructing, fuzzy numbers corresponding to terms “C”, "B”,
“A” are put in correspondence to the marks of graduates. Applying the method
considered in §5.2, ratings of graduates are obtained within the limits of NSE,
SESE, LAE and FE. Weight coefficients of all disciplines are taken equal. For
analysis of progress of five graduates, their average indexes of progress have
compared (Table 5.5) to the rating points obtained using the method described
in §5.2.
Normalized rating points in Table 5.5 are quantity indexes of average intensity
degree of manifestation of knowledge by the graduates within the limits of NSE,
SESE, LAE and FE. From data of Table 5.5 one can understand that the results
obtained on the basis of fuzzy rating points considerably enlarge the results ob-
tained on the basis of average evaluations. For example, graduates No.3 and
No.4 have identical average evaluations within the limits of NSE, but different
normalized ratings.
