Engelbrecht, Johann; Harding, Ansie – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2004
Online assessment in mathematics is becoming more prominent as mathematics and the internet become more compatible. This paper is based on a case study of a web-based calculus course in which a combination of paper and online assessment is used for assessing various activities. The paper first investigates what student assessment preferences are…

Collins, M. A. J.; Earle, P. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1990
Investigated the effects of units using computers and computer-administered tests. The greatest benefit was attained by those using the units and attending lectures. Students using both the units and tests did not perform as well as the lecture only group. Explores the correlation between high school grades and the methods. (Author/YP)

Fletcher, P.; Collins, M. A. J. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1987
Reports on a study designed to determine whether or not biology students were being disadvantaged by taking computer tests instead of written paper forms of the same tests. Results indicated that mean scores on computer-administered and written forms of the same test were approximately equivalent. (TW)
