The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of artificial
intelligence (AI) on online assessment in the context of opportunities
and threats based on the literature. To this end, 19 articles related to
the AI tool ChatCPT and online assessment were analysed through
rapid literature review. In the content analysis, the themes of “AI's
assistance role”, “automatic grading and feedback”, “improving
assessment” and “time benefit” were obtained in the opportunities
category, while the themes of “academic integrity concern”,
“reliability issues” and “adaptability issues” were obtained in the
threats category. The impact of AI on online assessment was
explained within the scope of these themes. The results revealed that
the most emphasis was placed on "improving assessment" themes in
the opportunities category, and "academic integrity concern" themes
in the threats category. At the end of this preliminary review, it was
revealed that more studies investigating the integration of AI to
online assessment are needed and all educational institutions,
especially distance education institutions, should take measures to ensure the ethical use of AI.
