Abstract

The article presents the results of the use of adaptive testing in higher education institutions with the example of the LMS Stimul implemented in Polzunov Altai State Technical University. The advantages and disadvantages of testing as an assessment method are considered. On the base of analysis of modern educational trends, the conclusion is made about the relevance of the issue of adaptive testing, taking into account the personal mastering of the material by the student. A description of a testing system that making a permanent adaptation of the test to customize the test for the knowledge of a particular student is given. The variant of the adaptive testing algorithm is given. A comparison of the results obtained using the conventional test and the adaptive test is described. Analysis of the test results is carried out in the context of topics, categories and types of questions. Based on the given examples, a conclusion is made on the effectiveness of adaptive testing.
