An Overview of E-Assessment

Öz

Along with technological developments, electronic devices/tools have been affecting our lives in many aspects. Inevitably, these developments have affected the learning and teaching processes. In the last decade, there has been an increase in the usage of electronic tools/devices in teaching and learning processes, as well as the assessment of these processes. Parallel to the increasing discussions on the use of e-learning methods in the learning-teaching process, how to use these tools on assessment and evaluation processes has become a hot topic in educational research. We observed different terms used to emphasize the same assessment approach in the literature, such as electronic assessment/evaluation, online assessment/evaluation, etc. Hence, we used these terms interchangeably in this paper.
