Descrição

There is an ongoing project on the University of Porto (U.PORTO) that aims the association of two didactical tools of information and communication technologies: elearning and computer based assessment (CBA). In order to make the convergence of e-learning with CBA there are several issues that have to be addressed: pedagogical problems in the assessment methods, technical problems in the implementation process and organizational problems that are particularly complex in an university campus like U.PORTO: large and spread. The e-Assessment topic is of general interest for those who work in e-learning, specially now in the era of Web 2.0, where many questions arise due to so many different approaches of methodology, strategies and evaluation. U.PORTO is no exception. The need of being more accurate in the assessment process when using the web, even if the teachers use a blended-learning approach, is real and work is being developed in order to try to respond to this need. Although the e-learning Unit (GATIUP) works towards different assessment methods, this particular paper focus on the implementation of online tests on campus using the University LMS – Moodle.
