| dc.description | Abstract : The use of computers has grown worldwide. This general growth in the use of technology has extended into the classroom where computers are as ubiquitous as blackboards were. In many institutions of tertiary education, student assignments must be word processed before being handed in, and students must show some proficiency on computers before they are awarded their qualifications. Computers are also being employed by teachers to teach and to test. While the use of technology to teach is fast taking hold in classrooms, the same cannot be said for using computers to test. Research has indicated that students are receptive to being assessed on computers, and may even score better depending on their facility on them. The benefits to teachers have also been recorded. Yet, there seems to be a reluctance to utilize computers for assessment. This paper looks at staff perceptions of computer aided assessment with the goal of shedding light on why computers may not have been used in assessment and suggest what may be done to promote computer use in assessment. | |
