Abstract: This paper reports on the findings of mixed-methods action research, whereby an interactive electronic framework named e-SEAT (electronically Selecting and Evaluating e-Assessment Tools) was developed to assist academics in making informed choices when selecting multiple choice question (MCQ) systems for adoption at their institutions. Via an iterative series of studies, e-SEAT was developed, evaluated, applied, refined, and validated. The research facilitated the evolution from an initial manual framework (SEAT – Selecting and Evaluating e-Assessment Tools) to the electronic evaluation instrument, e-SEAT. The findings of the empirical studies contributed, along with the literature, to the categories and criteria in the framework, which in turn, contributes to the theoretical body of knowledge on MCQs and e-assessment, as well as generating an automated instrument for practical support.
