Testarea online a competențelor științifice ale elevilor din școala obligatorie
ONLINE TESTING OF THE COMPETENCES IN SCIENCE IN THE CASE OF STUDENTS IN THE COMPULSORY SCHOOL

Summary/Abstract: Under the pressure of the Covid-19 pandemic; the school activities have moved from the classroom to the online environment. Considering these circumstances; the teachers have made serious efforts to adapt their teaching and assessment methods to the possibilities offered by the virtual space. They have used various educational platforms and digital resources; trying to be in contact with their students; learning “on the go” to make the most efficient use of them in the teaching process.Being an important topic in education in the current period; we present; in this paper; the results of the online testing for Physics and Chemistry of some middleschool students; realized through the Kahoot educational platform. These results support the opinion that face-to-face school or even blended-learning are; in general; more efficient than online school. Some advantages of the online assessment were also highlighted; most of them attitudinal; for example; most of the students were excited about the opportunity to participate in this assessment; and some of them returned to the platform and solved some tests twice; so using them for learning. The results of the online assessment have also underlined some components of the school curricula that are harder to be transformed into student’s acquisitions; and for which more time and explanations are needed.
