| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of the study was to find out the lecturers’ assessment of the effectiveness of Computer Based Test in the training of pre-service teachers in Nigeria. This is a descriptive research of a survey type using questionnaire. The sample for this study included randomly selected lecturers 201 out of 314 lecturers from two purposively sampled universities. A researcher-designed questionnaire for lecturers was used to collect the data. Mean was employed to answer the research questions using 2.5 as the basis to determine the strength or otherwise of the statement while the hypotheses were tested using chi-square at 0.05 level of significance. Among the findings, it was found that the use of computer-based test was considered effective and adequate for assessing pre-service teachers in cognitive and psychomotor domains. Lecturers from University of Ilorin and University of Lagos differed significantly in their assessment of effectiveness of CBT in the training of pre-service teacher in Nigeria. However, lecturers did not defer in their assessment of the effectiveness of CBT in the training of pre-service teachers in Nigeria based on gender and status. It was recommended that pre-service teachers should be taught using ICT to improve their computer skills. Other alternative to multiple- choice response CBT questions should be used for assessment. This would help in the development of cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains. | en_US |
