Abstract :
This research work aims to investigate and evaluate ways of enhancing the learning process by the use of technology. The technology offers a pedagogical strategy to assess the students (online) by describing an evaluating strategy of student´s assessment. The proposed system is being developed to provide an interactive web based learning environment. Three different types of assessment techniques have been introduced in this paper; Diagnostic Assessment, Self-Assessment and Summative Assessment which help the students and the teachers to improve teaching and learning capabilities. UML has been used to describe the proposed system specification while the whole system is implemented using .NET Framework. e-Learning and e-Assessment System with its web based features presents an equal opportunity of education for both the students in the classroom and the distant students. This is a student-centric system and the student´s progress depends upon his/her own learning efforts. The proposed assessment system presented in this paper is aimed at supporting students in their learning by providing them with instant feedback.
