Abstract:
This paper presents a technology-enhanced assessment system that can be used for both skill and knowledge learning. For this purpose, a general technology-enhanced assessment system is designed and developed for an online logic course at a fully online university, taking into account e-learning standards and specifications, which can be easily adapted to any institute and subject requiring a high level of skill learning. Through this system, both learning and formative assessment facilities are provided to students. To evaluate its effects on student learning process, the system is applied in a real logic course at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC). Based on the evaluation, it shows that students’ are more engaged with the system and, as a result, their performance in the subject had improved. Also, based on the feedback obtained through the evaluation, it shows that students are satisfied with the facilities and assessments provided by the system. Overall, the introduction o
f the technology-enhanced assessment system for skill and knowledge learning has yielded some interesting results.
