DESCRIPTION OF THE TESTING SYSTEM

ABOUT THE TESTING SYSTEM OF THE EDUCATION CENTER FOR TRAINING PROGRAM ON THE TEACHINGS OF GRIGORI GRABOVOI
(main provisions)

     When developing the concept of a website with the function of a knowledge testing service for students of the "EDUCATION CENTER FOR EDUCATION PROGRAM ON THE TEACHING OF GRIGORI GRABOVOI" (hereinafter the website) according to the academic courses they studied from the Education Center's "TRAINING PROGRAM ON THE TEACHING OF GRIGORI GRABOVOI" (hereinafter the Training Program), the following principles were taken into account:
     1. Students are tested after studying their chosen topic from the academic courses included in the "TRAINING PROGRAM ON THE TEACHINGS OF GRIGORI GRABOVOI". The moment of readiness for testing on the Course is determined by the student himself.
     2. To connect to the online testing service, students need to get access to the site, that is, a Password and Login to log in. Information about the procedure for registering on the site as an authorized user can be found on the language page of the site you have selected in the section "HOW TO ACCESS THE SITE". 
     3. After obtaining the right to access the site as an authorized user, the student can sign up for testing independently. The procedure for self-registration for testing can be found in the section of the site: "HOW TO SIGN UP FOR TESTING".
     4. Detailed Testing Instructions can be found on the Course testing page or at the link: Instructions.
     5. The number of questions in the test task for each specific Course is determined depending on the volume of the lecture. For every 45 minutes of an audio recording or an audio transcript text corresponding to these 45 minutes, one question is formed if one control method is described in the work. If more than one control method is described in the work, two questions are included in the test task for the corresponding Course. If the duration of the audio recording of the Course is more than 45 minutes, three questions are included in the test task for this Course.
     6. In the test tasks, four answers are offered to each question, from which you need to choose only one – the correct one, i.e. the answer related to a specific control method described in this Course. The other three answers (except the correct one) are also taken from the works of the Training Program, and in an intellectual way – they contain part of some control method from other works, but do not correspond to the correct answer to the question on the topic of the Course specified in the test task.
     7. The total number of points (the so-called Passing grade), that must be scored to obtain a positive test result is indicated on the test page before the start of the testing process (For example: 10.0 out of 10.0).
     8.The test result is calculated as follows:
      The number of points for the correct answer to ONE question is calculated.
      To do this, the passing grade is divided by the number of questions in the test (For example:10,0/2=5,00 points for each correct answer to one question if the test contains 2 questions or 10.0/3=3,33 points for each correct answer if the test contains 3 questions).
      The score for an incorrect answer is zero (0,00).
      After the end of one attempt, the scores received for answering all the questions during this attempt are summed up.
      If the sum of the points in the attempt is equal to the Passing grade, then a message about a positive test result is displayed on the screen. The test is passed!
      If the result of the attempt is less than the Passing grade, a message about a negative test result is displayed on the screen and it is suggested to take the test again.
      The number of attempts up to the moment of successful passing of the test is not limited. After successfully passing the test on any topic of the educational Course, repeated access to the test on this topic will be impossible. The amount of time allowed for one attempt is indicated on the testing page for the selected Course.
     Время между первой и второй попытками не регламентируется. The time between the first and second attempts is not regulated. The time between the second and subsequent attempts is 72 hours (3 days). It is recommended to use this time for deeper study of the Course material and successful passing of the test in the future.
     9. In case of successful passing the test, the student automatically receives a Certificate confirming the fact of successful passing the test on a specific topic of the Course.
     10. A student who has received a Certificate of successful passing the test receives the right to conduct non-commercial information and educational activities on the topic of the educational Course specified in the Certificate. This activity is carried out in accordance with the Public Offer Agreement of 14.07.2015, located on the following page of the website:  https://grigori-grabovoi.world/index.php/e-shop/vendor/grigori-grabovoi-web-shop/tos.
     11.
