Abstract (Original Language):
Monitoring and control over the process of studying the distance learning course are
based on solving the problem of making out an adequate integral mark to the educatee
for mastering entire study course, by testing results. It is suggested to use the degree of
correspondence between educatee's thesaurus and the study course thesaurus as an
integral mark for the degree of mastering the distance learning course. Study course
thesaurus is a set of the course objects with relations between them specified. The article
considers metrics of the study course thesaurus complexity, made on the basis of the
graph theory and the information theory. It is suggested to use the amount of
information contained in the study course thesaurus graph as the metrics of the study
course thesaurus complexity. Educatee's thesaurus is considered as an object of
measuring educational material learned at the semantic level and is assessed on the
basis of amount of information contained in its graph, taking into account the factors of
learning the thesaurus objects.
