Assessment Module


The Assessment Module allows the creation, management, and grading of quizzes, exams, and assignments. It supports multiple question types, including MCQs, short answers, and essay-based questions. Objective questions are auto-graded to save time, while subjective ones are manually reviewed by instructors. The module also provides feedback and analytics, helping students understand their performance. It integrates securely with grade management systems, ensuring smooth data flow and report generation. This module also incorporates gamified elements such as timed challenges, points, badges, and leaderboards to enhance engagement and motivation. Students earn rewards for completing quizzes and assignments with high scores or in record time, while streak tracking encourages consistent participation. Gamification transforms assessments into interactive experiences, promoting a fun and competitive learning environment.
