Teacher testing, which is currently the most common type of knowledge control can not be seen as a panacea. Implementation of this methodology should be based on relevant information, which takes into account the advantages and disadvantages of selected methods to consider control of educational achievements. Given this, it is necessary to identify the main advantages and disadvantages of this type of knowledge control.

Benefits educational testing due:

– ability to achieve the greatest quality and objective evaluation of on-vchalnyh acquisitions (of course, provided equivalence other factors), which is largely due to the standardization of procedures, checking quality parameters of individual tasks and tests in general;

– equity method, under which all students are put on an equal footing, as a control, and in assessing results; possible subjectivity teacher virtually eliminated;

– ability to identify the student's knowledge of all disciplines (content area), eliminating element of chance using traditional tickets;

– economic efficiency, because the main costs in testing associated primarily with the development of the test, that have single-hara kter; the cost is for the implementation testing process is significantly lower than the written or oral control.

Disadvantages educational testing due

– duration and complexity (and therefore significant cost) the development of tests and procedures for effective implementation of the testing process;

– inability to obtain information on the reasons identified gaps in knowledge of students;

– inability to monitor and evaluate high productive level of knowledge associated with the work that is probabilistic, abstract and methodological knowledge;

– need to ensure the objectivity and fairness of re-testing from entrepreneurs to take special measures to maintain the confidentiality of tests and reduce the probability of guessing the correct answers to test questions.

From the above shows that the choice of control of educational achievements ofstudents can not be "mechanical" and should be based on an analysis of the specific situation, taking into account the advantages and disadvantages of methods under consideration.
