Abstract

Computer-based assessment (CBA) is gaining popularity in higher learning institutions to replace traditional written tests with computerized versions. Some reasons that have encouraged instructors to develop and adopt CBA include the increased number of students and the corresponding increase in time spent by instructors on assessment. The primary objective of a CBA is to save the instructor time by leaving the computer software to mark and give feedback on the test.
