With the development of electronic learning, Assessment has become a major challenge in this area. Assessment is a critical element in the Teaching - Learning Process and it can affect teaching and learning. Actually, assessment is an integral part of any education system; therefore, assessment tools are also very important. The focus of this research is on the synthesis of Learners Assessment tools in electronic learning environments. The research approach is qualitative and its method is synthesis research. In this regard, the statistical population of the study included documents and research related to assessment tools in electronic learning environments that 21 study units were studied by available sampling method. The findings of the research show that 24 tools for assessing learners in electronic learning environment are used, which were placed in two categories of assessment tools: 1. Synchronous Communication and 2. Asynchronous Communication. In the meantime, assessment tools with Synchronous Communication such as tests, chat and online discussion groups, and joint group assignments; and Asynchronous Communication assessment tools such as self-assessment, projects, electronic work folders, peer assessment, and articles have the most usage for assessing learners in e-learning environments. Also tests and joint group assignments were common in both synchronous and asynchronous tools. In the end, it is suggested that several assessment methods applied in the electronic learning environment, to increase the credibility of the assessment.
