Abstract(in English) To determine the students' learning performance in online learning activities, essay-testing were introduced and examined as assessment tools for blended and fully online courses in the bachelor level and for blended courses in the master's level. Also, to study the results of using an automated assessment system for essay-tests, a proto type system was introduced and results were discussed. As the results, a common factor, "logical structure", was assessed in the essay-test by both experts and automated system. There is little difference in scores resulting from the use of essay test as an assessment tool in blended and fully online courses at the bachelor level. However, there is a significant difference in scores for multiple-choice tasks. Though most of these results may depend on learning content and environment, it is possible to measure learning performance through the use of essay-tests in either blended or fully online courses.
