Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Everyone uses a traditional five-point grading system to assess students' activities, however, it is not always possible to objectively evaluate students’ work using this method. Therefore, the authors use the criteria-based student assessment system in our lessons. The purpose of this article was to compile a model of a system for assessing students' functional literacy based on a criteria-based approach. An experiment was conducted on 32 people and data was collected using observation and interviews. As a result of the study, it was revealed that the assessment system makes it possible to determine how successfully one or another educational material is mastered, or a certain practical skill is formed. Based on the conducted practical experiment, the effectiveness of the content-structural model of the system for assessing the functional literacy of students based on the criteria-based approach in computer science has been proved. Keywords: Criteria-based assessment; computer literacy; integrated information; self-assessment procedures.
