Because of the spread of the mass education and distance learning it was necessary to initiate new methods in the examining. It was justified as well because the quality of the education should be maintained in spite of the increase in the number of students. In the interest of the realization of this goal the staff of the Department of Mechanics and Technical Drawing (Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Szent Istvan University, Hungary) have developed and applied computer aided method for give out and correction mechanics homework in the full-time and distance education for the last ten years. Other Hungarian universities and colleges apply this method as well. The circle of such applied task types in the program package has been increasing continuously according to demand. In the frame of this paper the authors present the method and the program; moreover they summarize their gained experiences connected to the applying of the program at the Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Szent Istvan University and the Technical and Agricultural Faculty of Szolnok College.
