Abstract

The goal of this paper is to introduce a technique of creating self-tests that has allowed to actively incorporate university students into the learning process. The study was conducted within the framework of the Erasmus+ Project EngiMath. Partners’ peer reviews, the survey results and the students’ comments in forums and test results were used to conduct the research. The students’ overall satisfaction was in a high level. However, opportunities for some technical improvement has been emerged like the formulation of the tasks needs to be very clear and the time required to perform the tests must be limited. The following conclusions can be drawn from the study. The use of self-tests at all stages of training has intensified the assimilation of the material, i.e. increased understanding of theoretical material and developed computational skills. By completing a series of such assignments on each topic of the course, students had mastered the methodology of studying the topic and mastered specific teaching material on this topic. Feedback made, taking into account typical errors, has allowed the students to analyse their knowledge. A large number of variations for such tasks has allowed students to be involved in the process of active independent and individualized self-study.
