Based on this fact, the current study aimed at diagnosing the validity of the E- learning assessment tools applied by the ministry of education in secondary schools and also developing new E- learning evaluation tools for assessing students' learning at the secondary schools in Palestine from teachers, supervisors and university lecturers' points of view.
