modern pedagogical science, however, like any other, is not standing still and develops in accordance with the requirements of the times and the needs of a new generation of students, pupils and students.At a certain stage of great importance begins to play in the light of the possible need to adjust the educational process of students' knowledge control.The essential fact is that at the present stage of development of educational thought itself control of knowledge of students, student or students is not primarily a stimulating factor for children and adolescents, as it was expected in the Soviet Union.In accordance with the latest trends of the time becomes relevant modern means of assessment of learning outcomes is projected adjustment of the teacher, at least at the current stage and the intermediate control.
current and interim control
available in the arsenal of means of teacher assessment of learning outcomes should allow to carry out the so-called current control of knowledge and skills.He carried out continuously throughout the whole study of a theme or a specific section.This modern means of assessment of learning outcomes allows the instructor deployed, argued to explain the aspects of the student, in which he has certain knowledge gaps.As a rule, even today, the main method of implementation of the current control is a self-study.Of course, this option has proved itself over the years as an effective means of evaluating learning outcomes.But in modern conditions is the problem of overdue economic use of school time, as every year the amount of information is constantly growing.In this regard, independent work in the classical sense of the word (to perform certain tasks in the classroom for a short period of time, eg, 10 minutes) was transformed into a larger volume of homework for a relatively long period of time, such as 2 weeks.In this situation, in addition to updating the cognitive, research and creative activity of the student, these modern means of assessment of learning outcomes allows the teacher to fully control the absorption of a large range of the program students (the so-called interim control).The latter option is often used means of distance learning.
As a means of distance education using testing
recent years in our country, widespread testing as a form of knowledge control.In addition to his innovation, technology rating and rank as a modular system of control knowledge, as well as monitoring the quality of knowledge in the context of class, group, parallel and so on.Naturally, the modern means of assessment of learning outcomes should be focused on the possibility of using various automation systems in order to eliminate the impact on the result of the subjective factors, as well as the possibility of on-line monitoring, we assume in distance learning.Whatever our attitude to testing, whatever the controversy did not develop in the press and on the Internet about the exam in the first place, but it is tested, to date, most process control knowledge - at least, it has no alternative offered.
Finally, in today's society more and more popular, at least at the stage of theoretical discussion gets so-called ranking system of knowledge control, allowing a greater degree of differentiated approach to issues relating to the assessment of students' knowledge, to create a stimulating competitive moment.
