General Problem
How to develop a Computerized Examination System with Test Bank Generator
that will help the teachers provide and check examinations efficiently.
Valenzuela Christian School recently has around 20 to 25 teachers that teach both
in elementary and high school level. Due to their manual process in creating
examinations, teachers find it hard to create test questionnaires efficiently. Every single
teacher is given a minimum of 7 subject loads and a maximum of 10. Because they teach
both levels it takes a lot of time in recording exam scoresand checking student answer
sheets which is common during examination period at school.

Every single teacher is given a minimum of 7 subject loads and a maximum of 10 subject
loads. Elementary teachers can only teach elementary level while high school teachers
can teach both in elementary and high school level.
They are only given a 2 days deadline by the school administrator to compute and submit
grades after every major examination. They will submit grades and other reports straight
to the school administrator.
Creating examinations in Valenzuela Christian School are all done manually. But before
creating the examination questionnaires, the teachers should seek first the approval of the
principal. Upon the approval, the teachers can not create the questions and encode it in
Microsoft Word. It will be printed afterwards using Epson LX-300.
Because of this manual creation of exam questionnaires that they need to create again and
again, the teachers take a lot of time and effort in doing the exam, checking papers and
computing results.
