Abstract—Assignment and assessment are important components in the teaching and learning process. With the evolution of web-based technologies, assignment and assessment which have been conducted with paper-pencil based can now be conducted online. This study analyzes students’ perceptions of the use of My Math Lab (MML) as a supplementary tool in conducting assignment and assessment in a mathematics course. The main aim of this research is to better understand students’ perceptions of the use of MML as a learning and assessment tool. This paper also investigated students’ satisfaction and their expectation after the use of MML and how it has affected their attitude of study. Overall, students were satisfied with the use of MML in their studies. Although students only rated the system marginally positive, it had provided them with their first hand experience in using online learning and assessment tools.
