Recommendations about an assessment of knowledge and abilities of pupils
Check, the account and assessment of knowledge of pupils make a necessary link of process of training. On applied courses oral, written and practical inspections can be carried out. It is possible to allocate individual, frontal, group forms of check and offset. Individual check can have various character: measurement according to the card, reading cards, carrying out supervision in the nature, various computing works, etc.
A frontal inspection is carried out when fixing knowledge, for example, after lecture.
The group form of check can be used after carrying out practical works or excursion. The big role in check and an assessment of knowledge and abilities is played by reports and papers. They not only allow to check and estimate knowledge of pupils, but also developments of a creative power and abilities, skills of independent work with references form a fine basis. Besides, any oral and written message improves abilities of pupils competently to write, state the thoughts the literary language, logically to think. Reports are one of types of independent work of pupils. It is better if pupils choose a report subject. Having got advice of the teacher, it thinks over the plan of the report. The plan of the report and terms of its preparation will be agreed with the teacher. The prepared report, as a rule, has to be illustrated by drawings, schemes. The contents of the report are reported on occupation where can be read one - two reports. During studying of a course it is recommended to each pupil to make one - two reports.
The paper - deeper and finished research. As well as by preparation of the report, good results turn out at a subject choice the pupil. The best works on an equal basis with other materials of pupils are shown at specially allocated stand on a concluding session at an applied course.
After studying of several subjects it is possible to check knowledge in the form of offset. Offsets give the chance more deeply to check knowledge of pupils, to reveal its individual interests in various questions. For offset the teacher chooses the most important questions on each of the passable subjects. Pupils have to foreknow the list of questions on offset. Some pupils can pass, without interrogating them, for active work during occupations.
The total assessment is brought as an arithmetic average out of the total amount of the got points. Certainly, the teacher can apply with success and other forms of examination on applied courses. We, for example, didn't concern many methods of examination and abilities of pupils. However anyway it is necessary to aspire to that classes on applied courses were given along with profound knowledge interestingly and fascinatingly.
