PRAMJEETH, Shamola e RAMGOVIND, Priya. Students' and lecturers' perceptions of computerised adaptive testing as the future of assessing students. Journal of Education [online]. 2023, n.93, pp.120-146. ISSN 2520-9868. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2520-9868/i93a06.
The Covid-19 pandemic has been a catalyst for the increased adoption and acceptance of technology in teaching and learning, forcing higher education institutions (HEIs) to re-look at their assessment strategy as learning, development, and engagement move more fluidly into the online arena. A total of 623 lecturers and students in private HEIs in South Africa shared their views on adopting computerised adaptive testing (CAT) prior to its implementation at their HEI in their respective modules, and their perceptions of such a testing methodology. Our study found that lecturers and students were comfortable engaging in online learning, with a large percentage being the most comfortable with assessing and completing exams, tests, and activities online. Positive perceptions of adopting CAT as an assessment tool for their qualifications were expressed, with the majority recommending their HEI to implement CAT.
