Impact of Computer-Based Tests on the Quality of Education in Nigeria

Abstract

Teachers need to be aware of how switching from paper-based to computer-based tests may affect students' performance as classroom technology expands and teachers become more technologically savvy. When teachers can create computer-based versions of assessments that students use between classrooms and for instructional decisions, this becomes even more critical. The impact of computer-based tests on education quality is the subject of this research. It was expanded under the subheadings listed below: the conceptual meaning of Computer Based Test (CBT), the benefits of CBT in education, the difficulties of computer-based exams in Nigeria, and the prospects of CBT. The conclusion and recommendations were drawn based on the following considerations.
