The impact of rapid adoption of online assessment on students' performance and perceptions

<p><b>Description of the project</b></p>
<p>The research focused on the influence of online assessment on academic performance and students' perception of the new method. Two data sources were used: the contrast of academic performance indicators (assessment, success and achievement rates, and average marks obtained) between the online examination call and the previous ones with face-to-face examinations; and a questionnaire to a sample of students on their perception of the online assessment experience.</p>
