Online Evaluation Management System for E-learning - Srinivas Chappidi, Keyur C. Patel, Dr. Pamela B. Lawhead, NAWEB 2003

Abstract: This research focuses on developing an innovative Evaluation Management System (EMS) for online courses in order to enhance the testing process in a distance-learning environment. The features of EMS include an automated quiz generation module, a quiz input module, a quiz edit module, an administrative module, and a report generation module. The questions in the student quiz module are randomly picked from a set of questions created by experts and presented in a non-repetitive manner. The EMS includes a framework for statistical analysis of quiz results, which are stored in an extensive database as well as various other student performance-related information. These modules are populated from a comprehensive database of questions, answers, and explanatory material. This paper summarizes the goal of the Institute for Advanced Education in Geospatial Sciences (IAEGS) to develop an integrated and effective evaluation system for online delivery.
