Evaluation criteria of basic education program acquisition are determinative for programmed results of elementary general education, feasibility of which must be guaranteed by all institutions carrying out basic general elementary education curricula, regardless of its type, location or organizational and legal form. Programmed outcomes are indispensable component of general elementary school education curricula.
Evaluation criteria of general elementary school education program acquisition provide guidelines for evaluation of personality, meta-disciplinary and disciplinary advancements at the stage of elementary general education.
Schoolchildren’s personality advancements refer to the level of formation of elementary school graduates’ value system, which reveals their personal positions, motivation for learning activity, social attitudes, and personal traits.
Schoolchildren’s meta-disciplinary advancements refer to universal learning activities, interdisciplinary notions developed at studying several or all subjects.
Disciplinary advancements of educational activities refer to the process of acquiring new knowledge, its processing and practical application, specific for each activity. It also refers to the system of essential elements of scientific knowledge, which are the basis for modern scientific worldview .
