LOCAL COMPUTER TESTING SYSTEM IN ADAPTIVE LEARNING AT A UNIVERSITY ^{[№ 4 ' 2024]}
Monitoring the competencies of students in vocational education is key to the success of the educational process. Pedagogical tests help assess the level of knowledge of students, while computer-based testing, which has been actively used in the last two decades, offers adaptability, objectivity, and rapid data processing. The education system in Russia takes into account the labor market’s requirements for workers with diverse knowledge. When transitioning to distance learning, universities faced challenges in using remote technologies. The aim of the research is to improve the methodology for creating test tasks to enhance the quality of the educational process. Our theoretical research has shown that computer-based testing has been widely implemented in education over the past two decades. An automated interactive network testing system is used at Orenburg State University. During the testing process of the AISST system, we identified the following features: the necessity of internet access and the lack of the ability to print questions for forming a test task bank. We have developed a program that allows offline work, simplifying the process of creating and editing test tasks, automating the formatting, and increasing the objectivity of testing. Thus, the developed program modernizes the features of the AISST system, allowing for improved methodological work for educators and ensuring continuous education tailored to the individual needs of students.
