Kordts-Freudinger, Robert; Geithner, Eva – Educational Research and Evaluation, 2013
This article investigates if online evaluation leads to different results than paper-and-pencil evaluation. Given that most previous studies confound the evaluation mode (online versus paper) with the evaluation situation (in class versus after class), we expected that evaluation results would be influenced only by the evaluation situation,…
