Abstract

E-learning has becoming a popular alternative to traditional classroom teaching. The impact of e-learning on education has been rising steadily and shifted the learning paradigm towards learner-centered learning. Assessment is a complex, necessary activity demanding time, effort, resources and emotions of all stakeholders. Assessment for learning is absent in e-learning systems. Education gives importance to assessment as a process for educational improvement. However, e-assessment tools place emphasis on assessment as a process to grade learners rather than value on its ties with learning. These tools may bring efficiency in marking, administration and feedback, but fail to implement these new forms of assessment practices. A true assessment system should provide an opportunity to enhance and promote learning. This paper proposes a framework to integrate assessment into learning with a goal to improve student's achievement and paves the way for improvement.
