Abstract

In the article is presented the conceptual categorical apparatus, used at the study of the quality of tests in higher mathematics. The main notions, necessary for constructing the method of test quality assessment, are selected and defined, namely:  

Test it is a system of tasks of specific form, certain content for objective assessment of the level of students’ readiness with the preliminary set methodology of results analysis;

Test quality it is a test characteristic that indicates the correspondence to requirements, presented to test characteristics in whole and to separate test tasks (the mean parameters of test quality is validity, effectiveness of test tasks – complication and differentiation ability);

Assessment of test quality it is a procedure of the determination of a correspondence degree of characteristics of separate test tasks and test in whole to quality criteria and the formation of a conclusion about test quality;

Computer oriented assessment of test quality it is an assessment of test quality using ICT;

Methodology of computer oriented assessment of test quality it is a theoretically grounded and logically regulated totality of methods of test quality assessment using ICT.

The introduced notions distinctly outline research directions; determine assessment methods and ways of quality improvement of tests in higher mathematics that, in its turn, favors the improvement of students’ knowledge control
