Resumen

El papel que la tecnología ha desempeñado en el ámbito educativo es innegable. De hecho, ha afectado a varios aspectos de la forma de aprender de los estudiantes, sobre todo a su evaluación. Este cambio ha propiciado una evaluación en línea acorde con la era del siglo XXI, lo que se conoce como evaluación electrónica. El presente documento es una revisión de la literatura que primero define la evaluación y destaca sus tipos, características e importancia. Luego, se pasa a la evaluación electrónica destacando su surgimiento, herramientas y proceso. Asimismo, arroja luz sobre las diferencias que pueden existir entre la evaluación electrónica y otros modos de evaluación más convencionales y las razones subyacentes a su uso. Debido a que la evaluación electrónica se ve de manera divergente de un académico a otro, el artículo discute esas opiniones discrepantes en forma de pro y contra de consideraciones pedagógicas, sociales, administrativas y financieras. Además, explora el conjunto de desafíos que pueden surgir en su implementación y proporciona un conjunto de recomendaciones. El trabajo pretende proporcionar una comprensión en profundidad sobre este tipo de evaluación y una visión para futuros diseñadores, profesores e investigadores sobre los diferentes parámetros que deben tenerse en cuenta antes de diseñar cualquier tarea de evaluación electrónica en un entorno educativo.
