    • ABSTRACT
      Electronic supported assessment or E-assessment is a field of growing importance. preparing manual test is a difficult task to handle and a time consuming process for teachers, in which they have to prepare both fair and consistent exam for each class. Besides, even is the teacher can prepare a sufficient exam, it is difficult to prevent students from cheating and if teachers cannot prevent them from doing this injustice, it will occur again and again. With this new system, the problem of cheating will be reduced and there will be no delay in releasing of student’s result. Human error(s) in conducting, marking and scoring of the examination. pThe system is designed to facilitate the examination processes and manage challenges surrounding the conduct of examination, auto-submission, auto marking and examination result report generation. The use of computer-based examination technology in administering examinations will improve efficiency, fast and also a solution to cheating. A computer based testing system (CBTS) will improve accuracy and profitability of academic institution as it reduces the cost of stationeries and labour involved in conducting examinations manually. The new system was designed and implemented using visual basic (VB).

      CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 3 ]There is a self reported cheating of 45% occasional cheater and 33% students who cheats often on the Rutgers campus of 33,500 students. In 1990, only 80 cases of cheating were reported (Fishbein, 1994). In a survey by Micabe and Trevino (1995) a student noted, “it does not pay to be honest in school, because, with certain forms of cheating, the chances of getting caught are slim to none”. (Micabe and Trevino, 1995, P.7). Take home paper examination (Marsh, 1988) found experimentally ... Continue reading---

The essence of the secondary source of data collection is to make it possible for the researcher to examine some of the related literature on the system. It is also method used or employed where data obtained indirectly from the original source.EXAMPLES OF PRIMARY SOURCE OF DATA COLLECTIONINTERVIEW METHOD: In view to investigation, offi ...

      CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER FIVE5.0.    SUMMARYThe computer based examination system has been designed and implemented in this project work. The exercise was carried out based on the loopholes that is in the existing system. Number of problems encountered in the manual system process which are delayed in the release of results, malpractices, cost implication of printing examination materials and human errors. This brings about the need for automation of the examination system. The new system will result in the f ... Continue reading---
