Tiivistelmä
Electronic examination provides various benefits such as time saving for the teachers and improved learning outcomes for the students. It, therefore, comes with no surprise that nearly every Finnish university uses electronic software solutions to facilitate the examination process.
The focus of this Master’s thesis lies on the identification of an electronic examination tool capable of supporting the needs and the requirements set by the Turku University of Applied Science especially with regards to the aquarium examination mode.
To this end, a number of different and widely adopted systems were analysed and ‘ViLLE’ was chosen for further development. In the context of the preliminary study, discussions for improvement of the aforementioned tool were made and implemented in the context of this work.
The outcome of this work enabled the Turku University of Applied Science to utilise ViLLE as their aquarium-based electronic examination system, whilst the additional improvements that have been made reduced teachers’ workload as far as the management and timetabling procedures are concerned.
Finally, the limitations of this work are proposed for future research and development so as to improve the versatility and efficiency of such electronic examination systems.
