The present study investigates the effectiveness of digital assessment tools in evaluating the B2-level lexical competence of first-year philology students within the framework of a university English language teaching (ELT) program in Uzbekistan. As digitalization increasingly reshapes higher education assessment practices, it becomes critical to examine whether digital platforms offer reliable, valid, and pedagogically valuable alternatives to conventional paper-based vocabulary tests. Drawing on a mixed-methods approach that combines a structured questionnaire survey with a pre-test/post-test experimental design, the study involved 48 first-year philology students enrolled in a B2-level English course. Participants completed vocabulary assessments administered through two digital platforms (Quizlet and Google Forms), and their perceptions of these tools were gathered via a 20-item Likert-scale questionnaire. Results revealed statistically significant improvements in lexical knowledge following digitally-mediated assessment cycles, alongside highly positive student attitudes toward digital tools’ accessibility, interactivity, and immediate feedback features. Implications for ELT practitioners, curriculum designers, and educational technology stakeholders are discussed.
