This paper first analyzed the shortcomings of the summative final exam methods which focuses only on final exams. Then, we showed the specific implementation of the quantitative formative assessment which includes objective results and subjective scores. Objective results include the traditional written chapter test score, online mid-term and…

This paper investigates the impact of online formative assessments on students' performance in an introductory accounting module. The online formative assessments were objective tests and a regression model was developed to test the relationship between formative assessment usage and exam performance. The statistical analysis shows a statistically…

Online assessment is one of the important factors in online learning today. An online summary assessment is an example of an open-ended question, offering the advantage of probing students' understanding of the learning materials. However, grading students' summary writings is challenging due to the time-consuming process of evaluating students'…

The purpose of this study is to examine the views of the course teacher, students' and participant researcher's field notes about traditional (smart board, pen and paper, oral) and Web 2.0 supported (A Sample of Kahoot) formative assessment in 5th grade science course. The study employed case study design. The participants of the study were a…

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…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the affordances of the e-assessment system Numbas from an Activity Theory perspective. The study follows a qualitative research design combined with semi-structured interviews with six students and two teachers. The findings reveal that the students were able to perceive and actualise several affordances…

In this study, we applied natural language processing (NLP) techniques, within an educational environment, to evaluate their usefulness for automated assessment of students' conceptual understanding from their short answer responses. Assessing understanding provides insight into and feedback on students' conceptual understanding, which is often…

Online assessment is defined as a systematic method of gathering information about a learner and learning processes to draw inferences about the learner's dispositions. Online assessments provide opportunities for meaningful feedback and interactive support for learners as well as possible influences on the engagement of learners and learning…

This applied dissertation examined the use of technological tools in formative assessment activities. These phenomena have left teachers searching for timely methods to perform formative assessment or assessment for learning activities.

A word cloud is a visual representation of data…

As classroom diversity increases across educational domains, additional stress is placed on instructors to provide effective and personalised learning experiences. Formative assessments can inform instructors of learning differences between student cohorts and individual students, allowing adaptation of learning experiences to individual student…

Acid-base chemistry, and in particular the Lewis acid-base model, is foundational to understanding mechanistic ideas. This is due to the similarity in language chemists use to describe Lewis acid-base reactions and nucleophile-electrophile interactions. The development of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies has led to the…

This study investigates the differential impacts of various online language assessment models--specifically, the Nonlinear Dynamic Individual-Centered Language Assessment (NDICLA), diagnostic assessment, and formative assessment--on the cognitive load and learning outcomes of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners within computer-assisted…

Assessment is among the inevitable components of a curriculum and directs students' learning. E-assessment, as prepared and administered with the use of ICT, provides opportunities to make the process easier in some aspects, but also brings certain challenges. This paper presents an e-assessment framework from a student perspective. Our study…

Teachers must foster within themselves the idea that technology is a part of civilization that must inevitably go hand in hand with teaching and learning, including assessment.
