ASPIS: An automated information system for certification and analysis of examination process

Abstract

One of the innovations that the usage of Internet has introduced is distance learning. Along with distance learning came the requirement for distance certification. While there are organizations that support the certification process, the provided support in Greece is relatively limited inflexible. In this paper we describe the first to our best knowledge, system that automates the certification process. The proposed system takes into account various learning parameters and makes use of the feedback of the process, along with the help of the data mining on the certification results. In this paper, we describe processes necessary for distance certification, the system itself and we present some results of the data mining we applied on the systems preliminary data. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
