THE VALIDITY OF THE TEST. DEVELOPING STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE VALIDITY

Abstract

In the educational process, the test is used to measure the subject area and the constructions contained in this topic. It is impossible to see the level of knowledge of the student, the level of formation of his abilities, abilities, skills: the teacher can see and measure them only indirectly (through questions and answers, observations, assignments).

Based on the conclusions made as a result of such a measurement, certain decisions can be made (for example, on awarding or not awarding a diploma, admission to study or employment) by any person or organization (for example, a teacher, an educational institution, an employer) to do or not to do, etc.).
