USE OF THE QUALITY ASSESSMENT TECHNOLOGY WHILE IMPLEMENTING THE FEDERAL STATE EDUCATIONAL STANDARDS OF HIGHER EDUCATION (FSES HE) ON THE BASIS OF MULTIPLE CHOICE TESTS
Graduate training quality evaluation should be carried out from the standpoint of the competency approach. To do this, the universities need to rebuild not only the educational process, but also the control system through the introduction of competence-oriented tasks. Competencies are multidimensional, substantive characteristics of the quality of training of the graduates, and express the ability to apply knowledge, skills and experience for successful employment. Therefore, the use of only traditional test items with a choice of answers is already insufficient. It also requires the creation of complex measuring instruments developed using innovative educational technologies. The article summarizes the experience of the creation of tests used to assess the quality of training of specialists, bachelors and masters in biology, ecology and environmental management. The authors of this article have participated for several years in the development of tests for school ecological competitions of different levels, intercollegiate student ecological contests, tasks for the Federal online exam in the field of vocational education in biology, ecology, botany, plant physiology and others
