Abstract

In order to verify common findings in the literature regarding the conception of e-assessment among students, we carried out a survey based on common findings. Our survey, which has been carried out over several higher education institutes, enhances the already existing findings by adding new facets. The achieved results are promising in that students seem to be open-minded regarding e-assessment, which is in line with the findings in the already existing literature. However, there are some open points that have to be resolved in a reliable way in order to completely convince the students of the opportunities offered by e-assessment.
