Model Of Future Doctors’ Professional Readiness Formation

Abstract

It has been proved that an important component of professional future training of a doctor to work in a specialty is his knowledge, abilities, skills and experience in using medical terminology. The readiness for professional activity of future doctors implies knowledge of medical terminology, the ability and posibility to use it, as well as the personal characteristics of students, which testify to the effectiveness of vocational training in the use of medical terminology. It is substantiated that cognitive orientation is an important component of the structure of future medical doctors' vocabulary readiness for the use of medical terminology, i.e. the formation of an adequate level of knowledge of Latin medical terminology among medical students. It is established that indicators of cognitive-orientation component formation are knowledge of the essence and structure of medical terminology, knowledge of forms and types of medical terms, understanding of the essence of professional speech activity of future doctors with the use of medical terminology. The results of the diagnostic phase of the experimental study showed the need to improve the vocational training of future doctors to use medical terminology by implementing certain pedagogical conditions and using the developed structural and functional model. It is distinguished that the results being obtained during the experimental verification of our proposed methodology of future doctors’ professional training to use medical terminology, testify to its effectiveness and expediency of introduction into the educational process of higher medical school.
