 INTRODUCTION

Testing and assessment remain an integral part of instructional

systems design for traditional classroom based courses as well as
web based training courses. The goal of testing is to determine if
learning objectives have been achieved. Formative evaluation using
online testing helps students assess their level of knowledge of
course material. In addition it gives the instructor a better idea of
what students are understanding as well as the concepts that still
need clarification. The current method of testing a students’
understanding of subject is to give question sheets and hold
tutorials. However this method can create problems, many of which
are common among classroom taught topics. It is more than likely
that there will be diversity within the group; some students may find
the topic easier than others. This leads to problems when tutorials
are held; the students that find the topic easier are often the ones
that answer the lecturer’s questions. Many of these problems can be
overcome by introducing an online quiz system and are emphasized
by Schelin (2001). An online system can be used at any time, users
can test themselves when it suits them; they are not set a certain
time when they must attend. An online system also allows the users
to pace themselves through the questions, allowing them to gain a
better understanding of the topic. It is often easier for a lecturer to
reply 30 emails rather than to entertain 30 students individually. The
online quiz system is proposed to be implemented at colleges or
universities by lecturers, on undergraduate students and other users.
It is a web-based application quiz that is designed to be taken online,
where lecturers are able to add/edit questions via the Internet. An
online quiz system has been designed, developed and used by
students of PHY4202 Semiconductor Devices course at Universiti
Putra Malaysia. The quiz tests the students on their understanding of
the semiconductor devices mainly in science and their technologies.
Concurrently, this project aims to explore the concepts and
supporting technologies required for e-learning systems.

DISCUSSION

In summary, this project has achieved its objectives

and a few suggestions for future development have
been proposed. The Online-Quiz provides backend
tools, reduces cost and saves time, generates random
questions, and secures login protection among other
significant advantages. These benefits are believed to
have a great influence in moving the traditional
patterns of education towards an the trends of E-
Learning systems via the Internet. Finally, the
suggestions are proposed in this paper to ensure that
the trends of E-Learning system will become more
popular in future.

CONCLUSION
The main objective of this project is to enhance the
performance of Online-Quiz System in ELearning System by
increasing its ability and flexibility.
• The special feature of this system is that they can
generate the questions randomly to overcome some
issues like cheating during the exam.

• The backend tools (add / edit / delete question, view

questions, and view student results) of Online-Test
Program is highly secured. The main user has to use his
or her user name and password to login to the
program, and hence the db name is required to
connect to the database.

• Lecturers can add, edit or delete the questions in the

database by using the applications provided in the
Online-Test Program.

• Lecturers can also view the questions and student

results in the database by using the applications
provided in the Online-Quiz System.

• The Online-Quiz System reduces the cost of printing

test papers, while saving time, because the Online-Test
Program provides backend tools and easy to modify
questions in the database. It is also more
environmental friendly because no test papers are
printed.

• The Online-Quiz System will increase the performance

and efficiency of web-based education as the backend
tools of the system are easy to use.I It is a new and
innovative way to move beyond traditional patterns of
education, and is in-keeping with the future e-trend.
This randomized online quiz system has been tested since
2002 for the groups of Semiconductor Devices, Internet
Environment and Web Technologies of undergraduate and
postgraduate students. The overall outcomes are very
encouraging.
