Abstract:
Written test is an important tool for competence measurement and evaluation
either in academic or industrial context. Not only in Indonesia but also throughout the
world, multiple choice question has become an integral part of educational system.
Multiple choice usually uses as part of the written test where the students who sit on the
test are asked to select a correct answer out of choices in a list. It is used to evaluate
student’s academic performance. One of the advantages of multiple choice is it takes less
time in the checking process and the possibility to be automated especially for a large
number of examinees.
The availability of smartphones with integrated camera opens the possibility to
create a cheaper solution in auto grading these answer sheets and saving their time. It
becomes the motivation of this project to implement an Android application based on
automated scoring that is more accessible especially for education institutions. There will
be no extra cost using this smartphone-based solution. It is very easy to use without lot of
steps or setup.
