Sažetak
Major changes in all aspects of the society caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have led to changes in education systems across the world. Lacking adequate preparation, the systems had to adapt to new conditions and transfer the entire teaching process from the traditional classroom to the virtual environment. Due to insufficient number of research papers dealing with language teachers’ attitudes towards online assessment and grading, a survey was conducted to determine the experiences and attitudes of teachers of Language for specific purposes at tertiary level in Croatia. The sample included 82 teachers, mostly members of the Association of Language Teachers for Specific Purposes at Institutions of Higher Education, who took part in an online survey and shared their experiences regarding assessment and grading. The results indicate that although there are undoubtedly many favorable aspects of online assessment, there are also negative issues which need to be addressed and resolved in order for online testing to remain part of the teaching process in the future. The results also show that the majority of teachers expect continuous support from their institutions as well as peer collaboration.
