Instructional Methods: These are the strategies, techniques, and activities used to deliver instruction and facilitate learning. They can include lectures, discussions, group work, hands-on activities, multimedia resources, and more. Assessment and Testing : These are the tools and techniques used to eva

  Computer Based Test (CBT) software is the engine that powers online exams using robust mechanisms for anti-cheating, flexible exam patterns, and detailed statistics. It allows educators, certification bodies, and businesses to create question banks, design exams, and administer them to a large number of test-takers. CBT software may be divided broadly in to two main components: Authoring Engine:  This software empowers users to build their question bank. It allows for creation of various question formats, including multiple-choice, true/false, essay, drag-and-drop, and more. Users can edit, categorize, and manage their question banks, ensuring a comprehensive and adaptable pool of questions. Delivery Engine:  This engine facilitates the exam itself. Users import their question bank and configure exam parameters such as time limits, scoring rules, and question randomization. The delivery engine provides a secure testing environment, enabling exams to be conducted online or off
