ABSTRACT

The field of education has evolved in many different ways since technology was implemented as a tool that facilitates the teaching and learning process. Instructors, administrators, students, parents and book editors and writers have experienced during the last decades the greatest revolution that ever happened in the classroom. This advancement has been influenced basically by the introduction and use of the computer in the teaching and learning process. Thus, learning became significantly richer as students started having access to new and different types of information, as they manipulated it on the computer through graphic displays or controlled experiments in ways never before possible, and as they could be able to communicate their results and conclusions in a variety of media to their teachers, students in the next classroom, or students around the world. Assessment, as an integral ongoing part of such a process, has also been affected by the integration of technology.
