Abstract

We designed and implemented a computer based assessment developer tool fit for the school of medicine. Issues about the implementation include the ease of usage, being user friendly and convenient conversion of PBT (Paper Based Test- existing exam items) material to CBT (Computer Based Test). Assessors with a little drag and drop can create exam papers in no more than a minute.

 

The unique format of assessment upload, with related conversion and some mistake correction covered by automation of ontological relations are special advantages of this implementation. What makes this architecture well designed for the school of medicine is that the software techniques being used to handle upload and download of large size files (e.g. medical images). A large population can be assessed using this method without hindering the service.
