How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Chaos is a typical property of dynamical systems that is widespread in all areas of modern physics. We can say that it is a very rare phenomenon when systems demonstrate only regular behavior. Researches on chaos have highlighted the study of a whole series of issues that have general physical and general scientific significance in a new way and provided new impulses. These changes have caused a number of methodological issues that need to be addressed in the process of development of methods of teaching modern concepts and phenomena. First of all, it is important to carefully select the material and adapt it in order to achieve a combination of scientific character and accessibility for students. This paper presents methodological techniques of teaching dynamic chaos on the basis of the authors' experience. This technique enhances formulation of modern ideas on physical picture of the world, skills of working with nonlinear models of physics, and develop practical skills of working with computer models.
