“…These findings are consistent with the study of Baticulon et al (2021), who found that the majority of students use mobile devices or smartphones in their online learning and also confirm the findings of Saavedra (2020), that access to remote learning devices, such as computers/desktop/laptop has been a recurring challenge for students as schools shift to online learning and supported by Rotas and Cahapay (2020) that this problem may stem from financial issues as another difficulty disclosed by students on data connection and internet connection [16,17]. Students needed a constant internet connection to fully engage in online learning [12]. Furthermore, Kundu and Bej (2021) mentioned that this shift was more challenging for rural and urban students.…”

Higher education institutions implemented flexible learning beyond on-campus and online learning during the pandemic. This study determined students' experiences with flexible learning, particularly modular and online modalities, and their problems with learning remotely. The study used descriptive research. The study's respondents were College freshmen of Apayao State College Conner Campus. The researcher thematically analyzed the student's responses to flexible learning experiences. The study made use of descriptive statistics in analyzing problems encountered. The experiences included challenges in the modular approach, availability of learning resources, usage of ICT, social interaction, and assessment modifications. The students encountered problems in flexible learning, such as ICT-related, modular, financial, and social-related problems. The College should formulate plans and implement adequate strategies to address the challenges and issues in flexible learning modalities within the College.

“…Educational institutions need to develop clear guidelines, protocols and quality assurance mechanisms to ensure the integrity and effectiveness of online learning programs. Adequate technical support and resources should be provided to learners and instructors to address any technical issues or challenges they may encounter during online learning (Garc ıa- Morales et al, 2021;Yeh and Tsai, 2022;Dizon and Errabo, 2022;Bhuana and Apriliyanti, 2021;Greenhow et al, 2022;Cabual and Cabual, 2022).…”

PurposeThis study aims to gain insights into how students perceive online examination practices and evaluation, as well as identify the key factors that impact their intentions toward online exams.Design/methodology/approachThis empirical study conducted in India utilized an online survey method between May 24 and June 14, 2022. The data were collected from 712 undergraduate and postgraduate students through a Google Docs questionnaire. Descriptive analysis, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), regression and reliability analysis were conducted to analyze the data.FindingsThere are many studies related to the adoption of online learning. However, there are limited studies that explore the adoption and acceptance of online examinations and evaluations. This paper intends to fill this gap and tries to highlight important factors influencing online examination usage by the students. Five important factors emerged in the study include “pedagogy, validity, reliability,” “practicality,” “security,” “facilitating condition” and “intention,” The study concludes that taking tests online is preferred for several reasons, including the perceived increased dependability of grades and the decreased cost, time and effort associated with taking exams.Research limitations/implicationsThis research explores students' perceptions of learning management systems (LMS)-based online exams and provides insights for students to better prepare and adapt. It assists policymakers in developing fair assessment policies and improving LMS platforms. The study contributes to the theoretical understanding of e-learning and calls for further research to enhance the effectiveness of online exams. It identifies gaps in existing literature and recommends larger sample sizes, broader representation, longitudinal data collection and conversational methods for future research.Originality/valueThis study shows increasing research on e-learning and online examinations, mostly using quantitative methods. The important variables for understanding students' perceptions of online exams are “pedagogy, validity, reliability,” “practicality,” “security,” “facilitating condition” and “intention.” Concerns raised include validity, fairness and security. Electronic exams are more suitable for formative evaluation, and validity, reliability, security and adaptability are key pillars for successful online testing.
