Learning process enhancement through self-testing and self-assessment using the TeSLA system

The learning process consists in memorizing knowledge, knowledge analysis and organization, knowledge application in practice. Its enhancement is still a challenging issue that provokes a wide variety of approaches. This paper suggests a solution for the enhancement of the learning process in different courses through students’ self-testing and self-assessment. Activities for self-assessment are implemented in Moodle, and the TeSLA system is used for e-authentication and authorship verification that is adaptable to various assessment scenarios. The experiment presented follows and verifies the model for self-assessment using the TeSLA system proposed by the authors in their other work. Findings show an improved understanding of knowledge and their application during mathematical and engineering assessment activities.The learning process consists in memorizing knowledge, knowledge analysis and organization, knowledge application in practice.
