The rapid digital transformation of vocational education and training (VET) has underscored the need to adapt traditional assessment methods to digital formats. However, when transitioning to digital modes, it is crucial to consider factors beyond mere technical implementation, particularly the potential impact of altered presentation formats on…

This essay examines contemporary digital educational assessment and argues that there are underlying problematic values and consequences entailed by the datafication of education as coupled with assessment practices. By applying Dewey's work concerning curriculum, aims, growth, and the conception of democracy through education to current methods,…

In mathematics education, assessment is increasingly conducted using computer- or tablet-based technologies as alternatives to the traditional paper-and-pencil format. Several studies have examined the impact of test mode (computer vs. paper) on test performance in mathematics, but these studies have produced mixed results and few studies…

Objective: To examine whether student use of AHIMA VLab™ in their academic programs impacts the pass/fail outcomes on their first-attempt national certification exams. This is a four-year longitudinal study, spanning 2017-2020. Methods: Data were extracted from two separate databases: the AHIMA association management system (AMS) known as Aptify…

Purpose: The objective of this study was to compare three distinct methods of test monitoring in the context of distance education--non-proctored remote or online tests, traditional face-to-face proctored tests and remotely proctored tests using software--to analyze if the method in which tests are monitored influences the obtained grades.…

This paper deals with the results of students during the preparing courses of mathematics for entrance exams at an university. These courses take place every year and since the Covid-19 period, they are not only face-to-face, but also online. The study involves students of secondary schools who apply to the university of economics. This report…

An important course in the computer science discipline is 'Data Structures and Algorithms' (DSA). "The coursework" lays emphasis on experiential learning for building students' programming and algorithmic reasoning abilities. Teachers set up a repertoire of formative programming exercises to engage students with different programmatic…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the factors influencing the adoption and utilization of the online examination portal (OEP) in Indian universities. This study combines the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Usage of Technology (UTAUT) and Task Technology Fit (TTF) to explain the user's intention to use an OEP at an Indian…

Questionnaire designers use readability measures to ensure that questions can be understood by the target population. The most common measure is the Flesch-Kincaid Grade level, but other formulas exist. This article compares six different readability measures across 150 questions in a self-administered questionnaire, finding notable variation in…

This study investigated the effectiveness of four Digitalized Interactive Components (DICs) designed based on cognitive principles to accommodate individual differences among students with learning difficulties in geometry during computer-based assessments. The four DICs were annotations (allowing students to make notes on the screen), pop-up…

Computer-based test has been administered in e-learning environments as part of ICT integration in education. Recently, online test is gaining attention in both regular and distance education institutions, and students' preference or perception of an online test versus paper-based test is crucial in successful adoption or implementation of either…

In language assessment, AI technology has been incorporated in task design, assessment delivery, automated scoring of performance-based tasks, score reporting, and provision of feedback. AI technology is also used for collecting and analyzing performance data in language assessment validation. Research has been conducted to investigate the…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) based assessments are commonly used in a variety of settings including business, healthcare, policing, manufacturing, and education. In education, AI-based assessments undergird intelligent tutoring systems as well as many tools used to evaluate students and, in turn, guide learning and instruction. This chapter…

In higher education, the entry-level, not-for-credit courses in Developmental Education play a pivotal role for incoming degree-seeking students. Focusing specifically on Developmental Writing, at two- and four-year public and private institutions across the country, a common requirement to pass the course is a summative argumentative essay that…

In recent years, Computerized Multistage Testing (MST), with their versatile benefits, have found themselves a wide application in large scale assessments and have increased their popularity. The fact that forms can be made ready before the exam application, such as a linear test, and that they can be adapted according to the test taker's ability…
