ABSTRACT
The main purpose of the study was to determine the measures for enhancing the utilization of computer-based test (CBT) technology in assessing students in Basic Electricity in technical colleges in Enugu State. The study was guided by two research questions and two null hypotheses. The study adopted a survey research design. The population used for the study was 57 teachers of electrical/electronic trades subjects in technical colleges in Enugu State. There was no sampling due to the manageable size of the population. The instrument used for data collection was 20 item structured questionnaire grouped into two sections according to the research questions that guided the study. The items were structured in four-point rating scale. The instrument was validated, and the reliability of the instrument was determined using Cronbach Alpha which yielded 0.76. Out of 57 copies distributed, 52 copies were returned giving 91.23%return rate. Mean, standard deviation and t-test statistic were the statistical tools used. Based on the data analysis, the study identified the government and school administrative measures for enhancing the utilization of computer-based test technology in assessing students in Basic Electricity in technical colleges in Enugu State. Based on the findings, the following recommendations were made: The government should organize and sponsor workshops and seminars to promote teachers' knowledge and pedagogical skills in the use of CBT for assessing students. Additionally, school administrators should provide teachers with the necessary environment and resources that would promote and enhance the effective utilization of CBT in student assessment.
