Abstract

The main purpose of this analysis was to explore the acceptance of online assessment on the part of students of Princess Sumaya University for Technology (PSUT) in Jordan during the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. The researchers used a descriptive approach. A questionnaire with 22 items was distributed to a sample of 862 students from a total population of 3446 students of PSUT. SPSS was used to analyze the data. The findings revealed that undergraduate students demonstrated a high degree of acceptance of the implementation of online assessment during the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, the findings also revealed that the degree of acceptance of online assessment varied according to the college variable (in favor of the School of Computing Sciences), and according to computer skills (in favor of students with Moderate computer skills). Finally, there was no statistical significance according to gender variable. The study recommends further studies into the implementation of an online assessments system in higher education institutions.
