The Design and Application of an Web-Based Online Examination System

摘要

Online examination has been used more and more widely in the education and other fields due to its advantages of efficiency, convenience, and fairness. This paper proposes a new web-based online examination system, which utilizes PHP, Ajax and other technologies to implement online examination functions, including testing question collection, user management, online testing, real-time score calculation, answer checking, and result analysis. Particularly, an automated test paper generation module was designed and integrated. The system has been applied to a course involving more than 1000 students per semester at Guangzhou University of Foreign Studies. It has been proved to save efforts of teachers and students, demonstrating its effectiveness in assisting teaching and learning.
