• Monitoring ongoing learning during instruction

• Helping students become independent in learning

In which type of assessment do students monitor their own learning?

• Assessment as learning

• Assessment for learning

Which feature is NOT typically associated with Computer-Based Assessment (CBA)?

• Automatic computerized marking

• Creation of question banks

• Immediate physical grading by teachers

• Computerized recording of results

One advantage of Computer-Based Assessment (CBA) is:

• Increased need for printed materials

• Delayed feedback for students

• Cost-effectiveness by reducing printing

• Use of paper-based testing exclusively
