Abstract:
World Health Organization has declared Covid-19 as a pandemic that has posed a
contemporary threat to humanity. This pandemic has successfully forced the global
shutdown of several activities, including educational activities, and this has resulted in
tremendous crisis-response migration of universities with online learning serving as
the educational platform. Bahria University’s existing LMS is failed to provide a solid
online assessment mechanism. Considering the flaws of online assessments in already
existing learning management system we have designed a system that will make online
assessments more credible and transparent.
This web application is developed by using ASP.NET Core MVC 5.0,
Bootstrap 4 along with ASP.NET Core Razor pages, Entity Framework Core and MS
SQL Server. Using the Agile Model for our web app we have applied the Feature
Driven Development (FDD) method. Advanced Learning and Assessment primarily
focuses on improving the assessment mechanism only. ALAS has a feature-packed
assessment system where teachers can check plagiarism inside the system. There is a
built-in text editor to solve exams, a facial recognition system and live video call to
ensure either the person who is giving the exam is the university’s student or not
