Abstract

The paper is oriented on the determination of a degree of scientific literacy of university students of natural sciences at graduate level, applying the methodology TOSLS. By quantitative and qualitative analysis of the results of testing, we found out that students have the lowest level of knowledge in skills related to recognition of characteristic features of the scientific research, as well as with the evaluation of the credibility of the source of the scientific information and with interpretation of the quantitative and statistical data. The results also revealed the differences in scores between the single-discipline and double- subject (a teacher) study programs. On the basis of the achieved results, we present in the paper the conclusions and recommendations for the teaching practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
