ASSESSMENT METHODS. A STUDY FOR ROMANIA AND BULGARIA

Summary/Abstract: We all know that the assessment of student performance represents an important part in the teaching-learning environment and a key element in establishing the ranking of each university. Students have different opinions about assessment and ways it should be done. Nevertheless, students favor multiple-choice format exams to essay type questions, even if they are always questioning the fairness of all kinds of evaluation methods. We shall take as sample two universities: Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Romania and University of Economics, Bulgaria. Besides the fact that both countries are ex-communist countries, there are more common elements, among which, in both places, there are fewer intentions for students to achieve level of proficiency. We intend to examine evaluation from the student’s point of view. Research findings reveal that students’ perceptions about assessment significantly influence their approaches to learning and studying.
