Advanced Learning and Assessment System

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
