Abstract

This article examines the pedagogical foundations of teaching "Occupational Hygiene" in medical education. To develop the meta-preventive competence of future specialists, an innovative approach was introduced, utilizing algorithmic infographics and individualized situational case studies. The results of the study, based on 12 unique practical cases (including the evaluation of occupational hygiene in the use of pesticides), demonstrate a significant increase in material comprehension, a reduction in cognitive load, and the development of practical skills in applying current sanitary norms and regulations. It is proven that interactive teaching methods are significantly more effective than traditional theoretical approaches.
