While research on online tests in higher education is steadily growing, there is little evidence in the literature of the use of learning management systems (LMSs), such as Blackboard Learn as rich sources of data on online tests practices. This article reports on an investigation that used data from Blackboard Learn to gain insight into the purpose for and practice of online tests at the Charles Darwin University (CDU) Business School in Australia. The results indicate both formative and summative use of online tests, with a range of practices across the school. Focusing on curriculum and pedagogical practices, the article identifies indications of good practice as well as potential issues related to curriculum mapping, including possible misalignment between learning outcomes and online tests. It also affirms the versatility of using data from LMSs in the study of e-assessment in general and online tests in particular.

使用学习管理系统中的数据调查大学员工的在线考试实践

尽管高等教育中在线考试的研究稳步增长，但是在文献中很少有证据表明使用学习管理系统（LMS），例如Blackboard Learn作为在线考试实践的丰富数据来源。本文报告了一项调查，该调查使用了Blackboard Learn的数据来深入了解澳大利亚查尔斯·达尔文大学（CDU）商学院的在线测试的目的和实践。结果表明，在线考试的形成性和总结性使用以及整个学校的一系列实践。着重于课程和教学实践，本文确定了良好实践的迹象以及与课程映射有关的潜在问题，包括学习结果和在线测试之间可能存在的错位。
