Schools and educational institutions need exams, and companies also need exams. As one of the methods to test candidates’ abilities, examinations are used in a variety of scenarios. However, the traditional offline exam has many obvious problems that need to be solved. For example, the efficiency of manually organizing offline exams is low, and the entire process from the beginning of the organization to the end of the exam takes more time, because many of the steps are manually completed by people. Compared with the online exam system, the operation of the traditional examination is still complicated. With the continuous advancement of network technology, these problems can certainly be solved well.
No matter what the test is, there are four steps: test paper composition, taking exam, test paper correction and data analysis. How does the exam system solve the problems encountered in the process of manually organizing test papers?
Organizers need to select several suitable questions from a large number of questions as test questions when conducting offline exams. However, this is not an easy job. Because it seems that there are many similar questions that are suitable as test questions to test the ability of candidates. Exam system can make it easier. Organizers need to upload questions to the question bank in the system, and then set difficulty labels or categorize them. When the organizer uses the system to composite the test paper, it only takes a few seconds, and the system will automatically select the questions in the question bank to form a new test paper. In addition, the system supports three ways of test paper composition, which means that the order of the test questions for candidates may be different.
During the exam, the system can deal with cheating well. If candidates appear to be cheating, the system will automatically issue a warning. The system administrator can check whether the candidate has cheated on the candidate’s transcript.
Under the traditional mode, when the exam is over, the test organizer needs to spend a lot of time to correct the test papers, which means that the test takers also need to wait a long time to get their test scores. The exam system can shorten the correction time of exam papers. Because in the exam system, only subjective questions such as essays need to be corrected manually by the administrator. Other topics such as multiple choice questions, etc., will be automatically corrected by the system.
Data analysis is also an important step in the exam process. It allows candidates’ abilities to be displayed in the form of data, making the exam results obvious and intuitive. Under the traditional test mode, test organizers generally use Excel to analyze test takers’ scores. However, this work is easily affected by the number of candidates. When the number of candidates is large, statistical work is prone to errors. Online exam system can avoid the mistakes. Because all data is automatically analyzed by the system, the accuracy of data analysis and work efficiency are improved.
