Contests and Olympiads should be considered not only as a way of comparing the students' levels of training. They can be regarded as a different way of organizing the mental activity of participants. Different types of tasks initiate various types of intellectual activity among students. The Olympiad tasks differ from "school" ones by non-standardness, a combination of the understandability of the formulation and the non-obviousness of the solution, the possibility of various approaches to solving the problem. At the same time, the variety of contests and Olympiads raises the task of investigating and classifying them, focusing on supporting different styles of thinking. In this paper, we carry out an analysis of contests and Olympiads in informatics, aiming at identifying aspects of the student's intellectual activity, which are not sufficiently evaluated at school. The Olympiad in Discrete Mathematics and Theorethical Informatics is at the intersection of the two sciences. The article deals with the problems encountered by the organizers of competitions in mathematics and computer science and demonstrates some ways to solve them using the example of the Olympiad.

“…In Saint-Petersburg Electrotechnical University we have been, for years, working on distance tools which are used in some contests and also as supportive ones for students within the courses of "Discrete Mathematics" and "Mathematical Logic and the Theory of Algorithms". This work is described in previous articles of the author, as well as, in the works of his colleagues [5][6][7].…”

Constructive tasks are very important and appear in every branch of mathematics. This work is devoted to some experiments with constructive tasks held within the education and assessment process. Firstly, some remote constructive tasks were given to students within a course of Mathematical Logic and Theory of Algorithms. The tasks served only as a support tool and students were not obliged to solve them. Secondly, tasks of the same types were given to elder students which had already passed the course with an additional request to log their intellectual activity while solving the tasks. The third experiment was held during the written exam. Constructive tasks which were given to the students appeared as “the reverse” to the tasks they had solved during the semester.
