Result: Digital tools improve efficiency and student engagement while reshaping assessment practices, shifting from summative to formative approaches, and fostering collaboration among educators, administrators, and EdTech developers. Conclusion: While digital tools offer numerous benefits, challenges such as equity, data privacy, and technology dependence must be addressed. The responsible use of these tools is crucial for maximizing positive outcomes. Contribution: This study provides insights into the evolving landscape of digital assessment, highlighting future trends such as AI, gamification, and blockchain, and their potential to further transform education.
