Sikorskaya G.A. SELF-COMPILATION OF SUBJECT TEST AS EDUCATIONAL FACTOR OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTModern university student education is characterized by the level of formation of key subject competencies, the ability to choose a rational approach to solving educational and life problems, and the ability to acquire knowledge independently. The goals of the educational process are determined by the requirements of state educational standards, the degree of implementation of which is fixed by various forms of assessment, in particular, testing. A test is a set of standardized control tasks with the necessary system–forming statistical characteristics that provide reliable and valid estimates of a measurement variable. Testing in mathematical disciplines serves not only to assess the subject theoretical knowledge of students, but also to assess the ability to solve mathematical problems of various levels of complexity. In general, the search for ways to solve problems is a process of creative thinking, the main component in building a research understanding of the problem–solving process. An effective way of learning how to solve problems is their construction – a set of mental operations that, according to a given abstract situation, allow you to formulate a task and complete its solution. The process of creating a test consists of constructing a task (question); observing the proportions between the task condition and the answer; building distractors, taking into account balancing the ratio with the correct answer. Independent preparation of a subject test by a university student contributes to the formation of the ability to identify life problems and find solutions to them; the development of inquisitiveness of mind, inventiveness of thinking, which is especially in demand in the professional development of a future engineer.Key words: university student, testing, task design, subject test preparation, quality of education.
