An Efficient Approach for Exchanging Exam Contents in E-Learning Institutions

摘要

In some e-learning and blended-learning institutions, such as the Saudi Electronic University (SEU) in Saudi Arabia, prior to the students undertaking exams, the exam questions are distributed to and shared among faculty members. This is done by email which poses a high security risk. Moreover, there is the issue of latency and problems associated with the organization of the exams. Therefore, this paper presents a system to secure the digital content of exam questions and their transmission in e-learning institutions, enabling the control of access to content with suitable management features for security, auditing, and archiving using leading technology solutions for content management and security.
