Remote Assessment in Higher Education: Insights from Southern Europe

Abstract

[EN] This research focuses on remote learning in STEM fields, emphasizing challenges in online education in HEI’s, particularly those posed by disruptive technologies, including Generative Artificial Intelligence. Using qualitative methodology, semi-structured interviews with experts in Southern Europe (Spain, Italy, Portugal) will provide insights into regional variations. The research comprehensively examines STEM learning, exploring challenges and adaptations. It extends its focus to the future evaluation of STEM education in remote settings, anticipating long-term impacts. Emphasizing the critical role of understanding teaching assessments in higher education modernization, the project contributes valuable data to inform educational evolution. Additionally, the research addresses gender bias in STEM degrees, fostering diversity and equal participation. By delving into implications for future evaluations and tackling gender bias, the study aims to enrich academic knowledge and improve practical aspects of STEM education, promoting inclusivity and equity in evaluating student performance.
