Assessment in education. What actions need to be addressed? The perception of students in social sciences and humanities

Abstract

Given the importance of the digitalization of education, especially in the context of the worldwide outbreak of Covid-19, this paper focuses on the main directions for action necessary in developing and implementing a digital strategy in education. To achieve this goal, we collected data from March to August 2021 and gathered a total of N=282 participants enrolled at four faculties from the Alexandru Ioan Cuza University, Romania, in the fields of social sciences and humanities. Our results support the importance of digital skills, digital training assessment, digital infrastructure, education institutions incentives, digital education instruments design, open access resources, public-private partnerships, best-practices exchanges, security and protection and strategic forecasting, in assessing a digital strategy in education from the perspective of both social sciences and humanities students.
