Summary/Abstract: A self-assessment and self-adjustment instrument. (for the preparation in Maths of the college students). This study begins by presenting the information that resulted from testing the cognitive and motivational level of the first years students from the Teaching Colleges of Schoolteacher - Modern Languages located in Cluj-Napoca, Năsăud and Zalău, focusing on the demanding preparation at mathematics. The conclusions that we reached from the administration of the documents after the beginning of the first year (October 2001) are illustrated in annex 1 and 2. These conclusion reported to the expected purposes of the formation (under the conditions of restricted number of Maths classes in the syllabus which is a total of 140) emphasized the need of an adequate teaching strategy, coherent and performant reflected in the curricular project on paragraph 3. A teaching experiment has been implemented and it is in practice for the group in Năsăud, this project being designed for a better preparation in Maths of the college students. The experimental factor is in fact a set of self-adjustment sheets (annex 3); the control group being from the College in Zalău. The promising results taken from the tested group after three semesters of four, on the basis of statistical processing given by the final assessment and the conclusions that offer an optimistic perspective on the experimental and curricular targets are illustrated in paragraph 3 and 4.
