We focus on the integration of STACK--a Computer-Aided Assessment (CAA) technology--in the mathematics department of a high-ranking University in the United Kingdom. We study a department-wide project where instructors were expected to implement STACK into continuous assessment tasks for (nearly) all core modules across the first two years of…

This study investigates the role of educational technology, including artificial intelligence (AI), in improving learning outcomes and addressing the complexities of multi-grade classrooms. A qualitative research method based on the analysis of scientific papers was employed. The findings of the study include an examination of the role of AI in…

This study analyses changes in students' perceptions of online examinations during the transition from a face-to-face to a fully online assessment system. We compare data from a survey administered to two samples of students at a distance learning university at the end of two consecutive academic years in which a new online examination system was…

The real-time availability of information and the intelligence of information systems have changed the way we deal with information. Current research is primarily concerned with the interplay between internal and external memory, i.e., how much and which forms of cognitively demanding processes we handle internally and when we use external storage…

Due to the use of online learning platforms and learning management systems, students are now working unsupervised on quiz-taking platforms. These unsupervised online forms of assessment are replacing traditional supervised quizzes in conventional classrooms. It is unclear whether the quiz-taking behaviors of students in these settings align with…

Cheating in online exams without face-to-face proctoring has been a general concern for academic instructors during the crisis caused by COVID-19. The main goal of this work is to evaluate the cost of these dishonest practices by comparing the academic performance of webcam-proctored students and their unproctored peers in an online gradable test.…

Technology has become a fundamental means to encourage reliable and more effective assessments. Rapid technological developments have led to the widespread use of digital platforms and devices in all aspects of life. Educational institutions worldwide had to take advantage of this technological leap during pandemics such as COVID-19, which changed…

The current educational landscape is flooded with new technological tools, especially with the arrival of artificial intelligence, which is applicable at all levels of instructional practices. However, the application of technology in assessment in higher education has been understudied. This study focused on filling this research gap by examining…

This investigation elucidates the adoption and integration of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies within educational assessments, focusing on the distinctions between pre-service and in-service teachers. Leveraging an integrated theoretical framework that combines the General Extended Technology Acceptance Model for…

The study examined the association of big five personality traits (i.e., conscientiousness, openness to experience, and neuroticism) with use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) among university students. It also examined the moderating role of perceived fairness in grading on the relationships of personality traits with GenAI usage.…

Background: COVID-19 has led to an unprecedented increase in the use of technology for teaching and learning in higher education institutions (HEIs), including in engineering, computing, and technology programs. Given the urgency of the situation, technologies were often implemented with a short-term rather than long-term view. Purpose: In this…

Background/purpose: This study addresses the limited integration of digital learning applications in science education assessment in Jordan, where technological adoption in schools faces infrastructural and skill-related challenges. The main purpose was to investigate the extent to which science teachers in Mafraq Directorate of Education use…

Online learning has enhanced accessibility in education, but also poses significant challenges in maintaining academic integrity during online exams, particularly when students are prohibited from accessing unauthorized resources through the Internet. Nonetheless, students must remain connected to the Internet in order to take the online exam.…

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced higher education institutions worldwide to rapidly transition to online learning, exposing vulnerabilities and highlighting the critical need for robust ICT infrastructure. This study investigates the readiness of network universities in upper northeastern Thailand to provide education using ICT during the COVID-19…

This study aimed to compare item characteristics and response time between stimulus conditions in computer-delivered listening tests. Listening materials had three variants: regular videos, frame-by-frame videos, and only audios without visuals. Participants were 228 Japanese high school students who were requested to complete one of nine…
