The Handbook for Economics Lecturers
(The Webography contains a collection of web sites related to the topic of Computer-Assisted Assessment)
The homepage of The Handbook is Economicsnetwork, one of the world's leading economics education sites, with nearly 4000 documents downloaded by human users each day. And for the provided website, actually, it's a handbood of Computer-Assisted Assessment from Douglas Chalmers (Glasgow Caledonian Universityand) and Dr W. David McCausland (University of Aberdeen) which is published in September, 2002.
The handbook introduces the basic knowledge on CAA and the related research field with examples and case study. It's a valuable website for the beginners of CAA to get started in terms of theoretical background and practical application of the target area. What's more, it considerately brings in the useful links and available softwares of CAA, as well as the contexts and environments of the implementation of computer-assisted assessment.
Part 3, the case study of Macroeconomics at the University of Aberdeen is a very detailed implementation of CAA, which effectively makes the readers understand the exact standpoint and practice of how to adopt computer-assisted assessment. Therefore, it's the most interesting and useful part recommended by the head of the webography.
