DEVELOPING PORTABLE WEB-BASED TESTING SYSTEM TO OPTIMIZE STUDENTS’ TESTING RESULT

Abdul Ngafif

Abstract

One of the ways in measuring the students’ competence in mastering certain skill or knowledge is by using test. Unfortunately, the result of the test especially that using multiple choice tests does not represent the students’ real competence due to cheating habit, sleepy supervisors, inconsistency of testing time, and others. He then develops portable web-based testing system with the goal to measure the students’ real competence and to minimize those weaknesses. To run the system, it needs no certain place such as computer laboratory because the teacher only needs two main tools that is his own laptop as server and the access point to communicate the server and the students’ laptop as users. The features I like most are randomization and time limitation. After running the system, the teacher just need to wait the result appears in his monitor and there is no paper needed in this process.
