Popis: Mathematical subjects studied in the Faculty of Computer Science and Engineering at Burgas Free University are focused on acquiring fundamental knowledge and developing essential skills required for future engineers. This paper looks into changing the process of assessment of students’ achievements in mathematics from closed-book exams to diversification of tasks and expected outcomes. Three aspects of assessing the mathematical knowledge in engineering programs are considered: the importance of identifying the entry level, blended learning and creating students’ portfolios with MatLab. The experience of the authors in using the tools of blended learning and the use of a software environment are presented. Some emerging problems in the educational process that need to be faced are outlined.
