Using ExamView to Create Questionnaires for Online Evaluation in VLEs

The field of education has been completely revolutionized due to the worldwide pandemic caused by COVID-19. Student evaluations, used as tools in the teaching-learning process, have had to be adapted to online learning environments (or in some cases hybrid online/in class learning) that most educational centers are currently using. This descriptive, quantitatively focused study evaluates the effectiveness of ExamView as a tool to construct and apply evaluation questionnaires in the online learning setting. During the study, 91 students belonging to three classes of Linear Algebra 1 participated in a survey evaluating the efficiency, pertinence, and motivation of three assessment models: Model A, a traditional, pen and paper questionnaire; Model B, an online multiple-choice questionnaire; and Model C, an online questionnaire including questions in a variety of formats such as multiple-choice, true/false, short answer, and matching. The results of the survey show that due to the familiarity and simplicity that students perceive when answering this type of multiple-choice questionnaire, more students prefer Model B than the other two models.
