What are the Features of an Online Examination Software?
Online examination forms an integral part of the modern online education system. It facilitates remote assessments, increases the effectiveness of examinations, eliminates the need for students to travel long distances, especially during these challenging times. However, with enhanced convenience and efficacy come a few challenges, overcoming which demands an online examination software to have a few essential features.
Accordingly, this blog discusses a few fundamental features that every online examination software should have. Later, it talks about EDOFOX, an intelligent online assessment software for schools, colleges, coaching classes, and corporates.
Challenges of Online Examinations
Before looking at the features of an online assessment software, let us glance through a few challenges that make it imperative for a software solution to have some essential features.
1. The inability to upload bulk questions at a time
2. Verifying the photo identity of the attendees
3. The obligation to answer the same doubts repetitively for every student
4. Inefficient test planning, miss-outs, and comprehensive dashboard view of the examination schedule
5. The inability to perform real-time test analysis
9 Fundamental Features of an Online Examination Software
Although not limited to these, an online assessment software should have the following features, or in other words, capabilities to facilitate seamless, secure, and effective assessments that enable educators to overcome the above challenges. Let us briefly look at each of these features.
1. Remote Proctoring
Remote proctoring is the most significant feature associated with the challenge that restricts educational institutions from verifying the photo identity of the student. Accordingly, the feature enables you to video confirm and verify the test-taker’s identity. It allows teachers to video record the activities of every student attending the examination, monitor his/ her activities, and flag misconduct. So, it enables them to maintain the examination’s decorum and secure it.
2. PDF Parsing
Analyzing PDF documents can prove a cumbersome task, draining teachers’ productivity, especially when they have to do it manually. It allows them to analyze a range of lengthy PDF documents and fix formatting errors efficiently. It also allows you to extract data and compressed images from the PDF for varying purposes concerning the examination.
3. Test Planning
Educators conduct a range of internal assessments to confirm the effectiveness of learning. However, with so much to do and manage, scheduling internal assessments often becomes an arduous task. In this view, the test planning feature enables teachers to schedule internal assessments for the entire semester and year. Additionally, it allows them to take a comprehensive glance at the past, present, and future assessments.
4. Question Shuffling
Question shuffling forms another critical concern. It is a challenge concerning the competency of the online examination. Some educational institutions try to manage it manually. However, the process is both time-consuming and inefficient, eating up a lot of otherwise productive time for teachers.
Here, deploying an online examination software with the question shuffling feature proves beneficial. It automates the shuffling of questions and enables several relevant permutations and combinations to enhance the assessment's competence and reduce the number of instances of misconduct, mass copy, etc.
5. Section Segregating
Examinations, especially those involving multiple question types, require segregating every section to facilitate diverse question forms to students. However, often, teachers do it manually and spend a lot of time doing it. But an online assessment software simplifies the task. It automates the section segregation part and enables teachers to classify questions as descriptive and choice-based and update them in the platform.
6. Doubt Management
Another significant challenge is that of teachers requiring to answer very examination-related doubts. Answering unique ones isn’t a problem. However, often, multiple students asking the same question, and the teacher requiring to answer each one individually, proves a stressful task.
Here, an online doubt management feature eradicates the need to answer the same questions again and again. It identifies the same type of doubts and lets teachers answer doubts at once. Additionally, teachers can answer questions in text, video, and audio form, upload them in the system, and notify students by email or through the application.
7. Real-Time Test Analysis
An online examination software also should allow teachers to live track the assessment for all students. The feature enables teachers to help students if they commit an error and re-allow them to attend the examination.
8. Bulk Question Uploading
Usually, what do most of the teachers do when they have hundreds of questions to upload? Most of them do it manually. However, as a result, they spend a lot of productive time and effort. Here, the bulk question uploading feature helps teachers upload several questions at a time without any errors whatsoever, thus saving time and effort.
9. SMS/ Email Alerts and Notifications
With so many assessments and examinations happening throughout the year, miss-outs can become a common instance. Here, it must be remembered that every miss-out signifies the loss of a potential assessment opportunity. Accordingly, an online examination software with a notification feature sends out SMS alerts, email notifications, etc., to teachers about an upcoming test. It avoids miss-outs, as teachers are notified well in advance and at multiple times.
