    In the field of education, the examinations are the process of evaluating the knowledge or skills of a student. And the methods for this evaluation always remain in discussion to make it even better and easier than before. Traditionally the exam evaluation is carried out on manual basis which is authentic; but quite time taking. With the recent developments in technologies, every step is taken to automate the current manual processes, to make the job easy and interesting for the human. Short questions - answers are playing important role in the evaluating of subjective knowledge so we have developed an application to evaluate the closed short question answer. Motivation behind the development of this application is to decrease the work load of teacher and the time required for the evaluation of the exam papers. Our application evaluates the answers by semantic matching student answers with the sample answer set by the teacher. And for the text matching between student answers and sample answer we used direct string matching and existing NLP(Natural Language Processing) algorithms like N-Gram and Longest Common Subsequence (LCS). The dataset for the experiments, consist of 100 short questions with at least three possible answers for each. Result showed that LCS give best accuracy when change is answers based on synonyms.

    Teaching Aiding Tool with Dynamic Quiz Generation
    (Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus., 2015-11-20) Faisal Mumtaz; DDP-BCS-SP11-019; Dr. Muhammad Umair; LHR TP 6920
    Computer or information technology is the most growing and the demanding technology in the world. It has its applications in almost all fields of life, ranging from health to agriculture, space science to mining, sports to education etc. Particularly the use of ICT in the education field, may turn the boring and exhausting class room environment into an attractive and interesting one. Visual based learning can significantly enhance the performance of the student. In this web based project, our major goal is to develop a Teaching Aiding Tool for the students which would demonstrate the working of critical problems of different subjects like computer programming, algorithm analysis, data structures, and operating system. In computer science there are many critical algorithms which are difficult for students to understand. We would explain the working of these algorithms through animations so that the students will have better idea in their mind about its working in an interesting and attractive environment. In addition to this we also work on dynamic quiz generation to help the teachers. Moreover the automated evaluation of the quiz will help the teachers in compiling the result in efficient manner.
