Description
ABSTRACT
With the thoughtful application of emerging technologies and in a bid to improve on the effort towards the conduction of the multiple choice assessments, this project is designed to automate all multiple choice assessments and examinations in the department of computer science, Federal Polytechnic Nekede Owerri with the aim of cushioning the effects of the existing manual, system but most importantly, to encourage and implement a faster and better examination assessment service delivery in the department.
In the course of developing the new system, the Microsoft visual Basic 6.0 programming language was used to code the modular programme for the new system in a top –down design approach it is important to note that the logic employed in the work us treated in a general sense. Inferably. It could be applied or implemented in any other structured assessment system.
