COMP2411-Project Automated Examination System Solved

An automated examination system is as follows:

 

A teacher creates an exam paper by logging on to the system and selecting the “Test Designer” option.  He/She selects the class that the exam is for and the subject and test number.  He/She also sets the date, start-time and duration of the exam.  There are three types of questions: multiplechoice, fill in the blank, or standard full-length test questions.  The teacher must enter the question and the correct answers (excluding the standard exam type questions which will be corrected manually on-screen in a batch).  Each question must be given a score and flagged as compulsory / optional.

 

(Optional: You may consider including “graphics” and “audio” in the exam.) 
 

A student sits the paper by logging on to the system.  He/She is notified of any exam that will be coming up during the examination period.  If there is an exam scheduled on that date, for the class which the student belongs the student is allowed access to the exam.  He/She must answer the questions asked on-screen.  There will be both compulsory and optional questions.  The results are stored in memory and when the class test is finished, the multiple choice and fill-in-the-blanks questions are graded automatically.  The teacher then records results for manually corrected questions.  The student’s results are then available for the student to see through the system.

 

Each student is a member of one and only one class.  Each class has a class teacher, but different teachers for different subjects.  A teacher can teach many subjects and a subject can be taught by many teachers, but an individual teacher can only set an exam in a subject for a class, where he/she teaches that subject to the class.  At the end of the semester, the student reports are compiled and uploaded to the system.  Results are to be displayed as letter grades (reference to the table: 

Conversion of Marks) to students.

 

(Optional: For example, consider allowing teacher to add comments and/or remarks before 

sending out the results.)

 

Test results for students are kept for ten years.  However, as long as the student is studying in the school, the results (records) are to be available online.  Otherwise the records are to be archived.

 

Analysis reports: Generate reports from the database to analyse the performance of students in different subjects.  Those reports might be the “Student Performance Analysis” or “Results

Analysis” or some other related reports.
