APPLICATION OF INFORMATION FUNCTIONS FOR THE ANALYSIS AND EFFECTIVENESS INCREASE OF THE TESTS IN HIGHER MATHEMATICS

SUMMARY

The present paper studies the issue of effectiveness analysis of pedagogical tests based on calculation of information functions. The algorithms of computation and analysis of information function depending on the type of test item and the chosen model of Item Response Theory are given. The procedure of analysis and effectiveness increase of the test in higher mathematics is developed. The application of this procedure to the test on “Differential calculus of functions of one variable” that was administered for the first-year students of Faculty of Radio Engineering and Institute of Telecommunication Systems of NTU "KPI" in 2013 is demonstrated.
