Abstract

Examination is the assessment method or technique through which someone that had earlier been subjected to teachings or tutelages within a speculated time interval is being tested with related questions and tasks after which he/she is graded based on his/her performance to be either qualified for a certificate, promoted to the next phase or to be re-tutored on the same subject matter. Hence, there are two (2) ways or methods for conducting this examination. First, is the traditional (manual) way, where exams are being written and graded with writing materials (paper and pen) by the examiners, and the second is the e-examination method, where computers are being used to conduct examination for both writing and grading which is more reliable, and timeous. This method is often referred to as Computer Based Exam (CBE). This project research is aimed at bridging the security gaps in the course of using computers when conducting examination often referred to as “examination malpractice”, where unauthorized candidate impersonates, by taking the exam on behalf of the original candidate in CBT examination centers. Bridging this gap is achieved by developing CBT exam web application and incorporating fingerprint authentication into the log-in interface of each examinee because of the unique nature of fingerprints in every man.
