The urgent need to train military and civilian responders in combat casualty care during large-scale operations presents challenges due to the variability of learner preparedness and the resource demands of traditional curriculum development. This study examines the application of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in authoring and evaluating…

Driven by technological innovations, continuous digital expansion has transformed fundamentally the landscape of modern higher education, leading to discussions about evaluation techniques. The emergence of generative artificial intelligence raises questions about reliability and academic honesty regarding multiple-choice assessments in online…

Multiple choice tests are unlikely to disappear from formal education, partly due to the ease of large-scale administration and grading and their similarity to licensing exams in various fields (e.g., nursing). Despite post-secondary instructors' best intentions in giving students adequate time to complete multiple choice assessments, it can be…

The COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on education, forcing many teachers and students who were not used to online education to adapt to an unanticipated reality by improvising new teaching and learning methods. Within the realm of virtual education, the evaluation methods underwent a transformation, with some assessments shifting towards…

Self-regulation helps students develop various cognitive, metacognitive, and affective strategies to regulate their learning process and maximize learning gains. However, self-regulation demands i) an encouraging environment and ii) student motivation. First, adding Open Learner Models (OLM) to learning environments encourages self-regulation by…

This study aimed at testing the effectiveness of an e-module based on ProblemBased Learning combined with Socratic Dialogue on the topic of environmental change in improving school students' critical thinking skills. This research was a quasi-experimental study and used a non-randomised control group, pre-test/posttest design. The sampling…

The literature acknowledges that deeper comprehension of content can be realised when students actively create their own learning materials. However, studies measuring the impact of students co-creating content on their academic performance are limited. Furthermore, there is a significant lacuna in our knowledge about the impact of learning styles…

Online education, while not a new phenomenon, underwent a monumental shift during the COVID-19 pandemic, pushing educators and students alike into the uncharted waters of full-time digital learning. With this shift came renewed concerns about the integrity of online assessments. Amidst a landscape rapidly being reshaped by online exam/homework…

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the incorporation of Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) into educational settings has become a universal trend. This study shed light on the new urge to focus on E-learning which serves a fundamental role in language teaching and learning not only in Iran but also in all countries. To help readers surmise the meanings…

Technology use is increasing in higher education, particularly for test administration. In this study, Capaldi's (1994) sequential theory, which postulates that the specific order of reinforcements and nonreinforcements influences persistence in the face of difficulty or failure, was applied to online multiple choice testing situations in regard…

This quasi-experimental study explored how different online exam types differentiate learners' academic achievement and perceived learning. The participants comprised 95 undergraduate students enrolled in an English course at a Turkish university in three groups, each taking a different type of quiz: with multiple-choice, open-ended, and mixed…

The emergency transition to online learning due to COVID-19 has forced many sectors to respond quickly. The readiness of educational institutes to attend to the abrupt crisis and shift to teach remotely is practiced at different levels. Online assessment is one of them. Rapid advances in technology and software applications are changing the…

One of the most important goals in E-learning is to guarantee that participants reach the learning objectives. We have observed that having the knowledge of the subject is not sufficient for reaching learning objectives. The participants must also develop understanding that they know the subject, which we have named confidence. In this work, we…

Assessment plays an important role in learning and Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) are quite popular in large-scale evaluations. Technology-enabled learning necessitates a smart assessment. Therefore, automatic MCQ generation became increasingly popular in the last two decades. Despite a large amount of research effort, system generated MCQs are…

While response time and accuracy indicate overall performance, their value in uncovering cognitive processes, underlying learning, is limited. A promising online measure, designed to track decision-making, is computer mouse tracking, where mouse attraction towards different locations may reflect the consideration of alternative response options.…
