RAPID TESTS AS AN ASPECT OF COMMUNICATION IN THE DIGITAL ENVIRONMENT
Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
The transition of the economy to a digital format requires universities to train graduates with special competencies. The most important of them, according to the government and employers, is the competence of communication and cooperation in the digital environment. For its sustainable formation, systematic work is required, covering the entire learning process. The article discusses the possibilities of developing communication competence in the framework of teaching mathematics to first-year undergraduate students of an economic university. The authors see the potential of online tests for building digital communication skills. Regular use of online response systems in the educational process makes it possible to prepare students for some of the features of digital communication: instant immersion on the necessary platform, communication under strict regulations and time constraints. The paper describes the experience of testing students using the Socrative and PollEverywhere resources. Methodical recommendations for the organization of the educational process are given. The effectiveness of using online tests is confirmed by a survey of students.

Keywords:
competence of communication and cooperation in the digital environment, digital communication, rapid tests in mathematics, online student response systems (OSRS), Socrative, PollEverywhere
