Abstract

The continuing development of online assessment capitalizes on the advantages of computerized and online technologies to improve the effectiveness and efficiencies of assessing student learning. The online environment allows for the development of complex, interactive communications between the learner and the assessment system. This presents both new opportunities and new challenges in assessment design. A review of traditional issues and best practices is essential in taking advantage of new technologies and incorporating them into new assessment designs. Understanding these factors will help to advance the field and improve future learning and assessment. © 2012, IGI Global.
