Online Exams: An Opportunity or a Threat?
Hebebci, Mustafa Tevfik; Yilmaz, Oguz
Online Submission
Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, online exams have become an indispensable part of distance education. Measurement and evaluation, one of the most essential parts of education, has become more controversial with distance education. Contrary to traditional assessment and evaluation, online assessment and assessment is usually carried out as assignments, projects or online exams given to students through the learning management system. In the absence of a supervision mechanism or live supervisors in the learning management system, exams are conducted without supervision. This is where online exams are the most controversial. Many instructors find unsupervised exams insufficient in terms of reliability and validity. Contrary to these negative thoughts, some educators consider an essential opportunity for an effective online exam to be more flexible than traditional exams, to be reported in detail in a short time, and to prevent paperwork. In this research, online exams were evaluated comprehensively. In this context, the opinions of the lecturers were consulted. The research results carried out by qualitative methods were discussed with the studies in the literature, and some suggestions were presented.
