Are you an assessment professional or an educator seeking to know more about the role of computers and the Internet? 

Do you want to influence the way electronic assessment develops 

If you are, then the e-Assessment Association is for you.

What is the e-Assessment Association?

The embryonic e-Assessment Association has three major goals for its community: to provide professional support for workers in this field of expertise, to work collaboratively with members and national organisations to create and communicate the positive contribution that technologies can make to assessment methods and produce a statement of good practice for commercial vendors of e-Assessment.

See members section/’useful papers etc’ for Helen Ashton’s paper, presented at CAA 2008, ‘Can e-Assessment become Mainstream’ and other articles and documents relating to e-Assesment.
