Abstract
The educational process implemented in the educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia requires the use of alternative methods that facilitate learning. Within the context of these innovations, the leading directions of pedagogical activity include the development and enhancement of integrative skills among students, as well as the creation of new forms of interaction in practical training sessions. The theoretical research conducted in this study aims to address the following objectives: to analyze current information regarding interdisciplinary approaches to teaching a block of specialized subjects in educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia; to specify the definition and objectives of interdisciplinarity; to identify approaches and concepts in interdisciplinary pedagogical practice; to clarify the concept and objectives of formative assessment; and to determine the most promising assessment strategy that enhances the effectiveness of the educational process within the system of educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, in which students and instructors interact harmoniously and complement each other. Alongside the empirical method of oral surveying, the study employed the main tools of theoretical research methods, with the dialectical method of scientific inquiry serving as the principal one. Emphasizing the formative nature of the assessment method under consideration made it possible to reveal the essence of the pedagogical process in physical training, specifically in the context of tactical and technical training for police officers.
