Faculty perceptions on quality standards in online placement tests

This paper aims to measure the degree of faculty members’ perceptions of quality standards in online placement tests at Al-Zaytoonah University of Jordan. The methodology utilizes the descriptive-survey approach. The population includes (500) faculty members, while the sample comprises (200) from nine faculties at (ZUJ) for the academic year (2024/2025). The tool includes an item-based questionnaire. The findings indicate a high level of faculty members' responses to the degree of availability of quality standards in designing online placement tests, with a mean of (3.75) and a standard deviation of (0.41). Also, the results demonstrate a high level of the faculty members' responses to all dimensions. The research significance lies in enhancing educational scientific research by allowing researchers to take advantage of the study tools, the methods used, and the recommendations. Moreover, the new gap filled by this research is mirrored in identifying the perceptions of quality standards in online placement tests from faculty members’ perspectives. Among the key implications is adding empirical support to develop quality standards for online placement tests to consider students with special needs, hold workshops and training courses for faculty members on the quality of online placement tests, and use various models in these tests.

Abstract

This paper aims to measure the degree of faculty members’ perceptions of quality standards in online placement tests at Al-Zaytoonah University of Jordan. The methodology utilizes the descriptive-survey approach. The population includes (500) faculty members, while the sample comprises (200) from nine faculties at (ZUJ) for the academic year (2024/2025). The tool includes an item-based questionnaire. The findings indicate a high level of faculty members' responses to the degree of availability of quality standards in designing online placement tests, with a mean of (3.75) and a standard deviation of (0.41). Also, the results demonstrate a high level of the faculty members' responses to all dimensions. The research significance lies in enhancing educational scientific research by allowing researchers to take advantage of the study tools, the methods used, and the recommendations. Moreover, the new gap filled by this research is mirrored in identifying the perceptions of quality standards in online placement tests from faculty members’ perspectives. Among the key implications is adding empirical support to develop quality standards for online placement tests to consider students with special needs, hold workshops and training courses for faculty members on the quality of online placement tests, and use various models in these tests.
