1. ICT in Evaluation

2. Introduction to ICT The constructivist method in teaching-learning processes enables instructors to assess pupils using modern information and communication technologies (ICTs). ICT has been a significant component of classroom activities during the last few decades. Teachers collect information from the internet and other ICT resources for teaching and learning. Children are also using computers and other electronic devices for self-learning and expanding their knowledge beyond the current curriculum. With the advent of ICT, the nature of teaching, learning, and assessment has changed.

3. Importance of ICT in Evaluation The ICT-integrated assessment gives pupils rapid feedback. Children's confidence is increased by technology-enabled evaluation since they receive rapid feedback on their learning. The evaluation may be set up so that children receive quick feedback and can therefore repair their mistakes and go forward. The frequency of assessment could be increased, which would benefit children and keep them engaged in their studies. It piques learners' attention and motivates them as they try various technology-assisted assessments. Technology-assisted testing/assessment procedures are inexpensive and straightforward to use.

4. T raditional E valuation P rocess and their Limitation The inability to accommodate all students can lead to incomplete, skewed feedback with a narrow view point. Many factors can affect the quality of data retrieved through in-class paper evaluation. Using a paper-based process also doesn’t afford much flexibility in terms of the reports that can be generated for instructors and faculty It may take several months to complete the cycle from administering the forms to collecting and analyzing the result. The major disadvantage of using paper assessments is the high cost associated with the process

5. Use of ICT in Evaluation Evaluation is an essential component of teaching-learning. It allows you to assess children's instructional activities and to learn achievement. Traditional assessment methods include paper and pencil tests, unit and term-end examinations, and oral questioning procedures. However, the rise of ICT has had an impact on evaluation methodologies. A simple example would be keeping track of children's grades on an excel spreadsheet. Previously, children's grades were recorded on paper sheets, but today, application software such as Microsoft Excel is utilized. ICT in assessment has two dimensions: technology as a tool and technology as an aiding medium. Let us look at two accessible instances. A student utilizing a video camera to record the teaching session is an example of using technology as a tool while analyzing the recorded video is an example of using technology to aid with evaluation. Before proceeding, please review the illustration, which will assist you in differentiating the various sorts of examinations. As teachers, we are concerned about using ICT in many sorts of evaluation.

6. Types of Evaluation based on ICT Performance-based assessment: Teachers can give students feedback on the results of an assessment immediately. Examination reform: Online examination systems like Attest and Merit track can be studied to understand how ICT can be used for traditional exams. Computer-assisted assessment: Also known as computer-aided assessment (CAA). Computer-based assessment: CBA.

7. Merits of ICT in Evaluation Students can use ICT to organize their work and make it more clear ICT can support different teaching methods, this varies the way students can learn Some computer programs such as teaching programs provide immediate feedback on work completed by students Some applications can save time and effort such as programs that teach French vocabulary, these are quicker and more effective than using paper Encourages collaborative work, so students can work together

8. Demerits of ICT in Evaluation ICT equipment is expensive and needs trained staff to maintain it correctly Hardware can be unreliable leading to breakdowns which cause frustration U sing ICT means children can become dependent on computers and technology and not learn how to do things by hand I nternet can lead to children accessing unsuitable sites P lagiarism has increased as students find pre written work online leading to students gaining unfair results on coursework
