Formative assessment is a strategy that optimizes the learning process at any educational level, however its use is not very frequent as literature revision shows. In this paper, we analyse the use of formative assessment in online postgraduate studies (masters) in Spanish universities. Our sample was 31 online master's degrees coordinators and we…

This research aims to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the online exams, as well as the aspects that can be evaluated as opportunities and threats, by making a SWOT analysis of the online exams that are frequently used in the distance education process. For this purpose, the study was designed with the case study technique, one of the…

Plagiarism is prevalent all over the world, especially in higher education. This quantitative-descriptive study investigated the reasons and gender differences for plagiarism among undergraduate students at Wenzhou-Kean University (WKU). To collect quantitative data, the random sample of 102 undergraduates at WKU answered questions about…

The COVID-19 pandemic revolutionized the world's status quo to transition from face-to-face into online E-learning. However, this unexpected transformation in teaching-learning approaches necessitates teachers to teach while frequently assessing students' performance through online assessment, which has been substantiated to expose teachers to an…

This study conducts the validity of the pen-and-paper and smart-device-based tests on optician's examination. The developed questions for each media were based on the national optician's simulation test. The subjects of this study were 60 students enrolled in E University. The data analysis was performed to verify the equivalence of the two…

In a concept learning scenario, any technology-supported learning system must provide students with mechanisms that help them with the acquisition of the concepts to be learned. For the technology-supported learning systems to be successful in this task, the development of didactic material is crucial--a hard task that could be alleviated by means…

Assessment is critical in postsecondary education, as it is at all levels. Assessments are classified into four types: diagnostic, summative, evaluative, and formative. Recent trends in assessment have migrated away from summative to formative evaluations. Formative evaluations help students develop expertise and concentrate their schedules, ease…

We have dramatically advanced our ability to create rich, complex, and effective assessments across a range of uses through technology advancement. Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled assessments represent one such area of advancement--one that has captured our collective interest and imagination. Scientists and practitioners within the domains…

This study suggests a digital assessment tool - Smart Equation Exam System (SEED) - as a substitute for traditional multiple-choice and paper and pen exams. SEED includes a question bank, an answer platform, mathematical equations, and physics formulae. The novelty of SEED is that it allows all students with or without physical disabilities via…

During the pandemic, the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has had a tremendous and massive impact on the entire cross-level education system in Indonesia and the global realm. This study aimed to look at the reflections of gamification activities that are used as a formative assessment tool in learning environments based on academic…

Administration and scoring of cognitive assessments have evolved from a paper-based platform to a digital format. Since this advancement, Pearson has created a system (Q-interactive) that allows examiners to administer the WISC-V via two iPads. However, limited research exists exploring the effects of this new method of administration when…

Computer-assisted assessment continues to be incorporated into more and more mathematics courses. As this method of testing is used, questions are created to use through computer-assisted assessment. This study analyzed two types of questions used on computer-assisted assessment in Calculus I, II, and III courses. The first question type was…

The use of animations and images in technology-based assessments (TBAs) represents a significant change in assessment design. To ensure that appropriate inferences can be drawn from assessments that use multimedia stimuli, their impact on test-taker performance and behaviour must be investigated. To achieve this, an experiment was conducted with…

Remote proctoring of exams is one of the most divisive issues in higher education. Critiques of remote proctoring abound, and there are a variety of perspectives particularly in relation to the advantages and disadvantages of this type of assessment, and opportunities for cheating. However, these perspectives are largely based on rhetoric with…

The study implements and investigates an innovative learning approach that incorporates Flipped Classroom (FC) methodologies and electronic assessment (e-assessment) in Context-Based Learning (CBL) in chemistry among middle school students. The study incorporated mixed methods strategies and (a) examined learners' attitudes toward and perceptions…
