In addition, WebMC was used to present and score the end of semester test. The newly developed secure mode for WebMC was utilised to present questions to students during their classroom quizzes. Password protection, IP address limitations, and encryption of data during transition were among the security features used to protect tests from unauthorised accessing. During the week of the tests, no data was lost, and no security breaches were recorded. In total, during the month in which WebMC was used for formative and summative assessment with First Year Psychology in 1998, over 500,000 web pages of information were served without any errors or software malfunctions.
Additional information relating to each topic is a very good study guide.
As well as this, access from home encourages and motivates me to study in free time. The design and construction of WebMC was based on sound principles of assessment practice and utilised the inherent potential advantages of the web. Student evaluation of WebMC indicated that it made a valuable contribution to their learning, and that the vast majority of students made use of this resource in the context described. Use of WebMC in 1998 indicates that it provides a comprehensive assessment package for multiple choice material, allowing both formative and summative assessment options. Due to the generic structure of the software, questions from any discipline area that are adaptable to multiple choice may be presented using WebMC , hence its value far beyond the confines of Psychology.
