There were four emerging categories and eventually formed nine major themes:(1) Educational Involvement (2) Learners Engagement (3) Support (4) Educational Tool Refinement. While the emerging major themes were 1) students experience digital assessment tool predicament in mathematics (2) difficulty grasping the topic through teachers’ instructional method (3) students have a proclivity to engage in academic dishonesty (4) procrastination and cramming are common among students during exams (5) learners have become passive to their own learning development (6) students' internet connections at home are inadequate (7) students are unable to focus during the exam as a result of the destructive environment (8) Digital Assessment tool commendation and new preference is evident among the students (9) Students have learned to appreciate the worth of their time and work.
