Development of Continuous Authentication System on Android-Based Online Exam Application
The
impact of technology in education can be seen from the development of learning
systems. According to Alonso and Norman in particular there are four types of
learning systems, namely conventional learning systems, instructional learning
systems, e-learning, and mobile learning [1]. M-learning supports learning
activities carried out continuously through mobile devices such as smartphones
and tablets flexibly anytime and anywhere [2]. Over times, emerging innovations
implemented as a feature on m-learning, such as online exam. Adapted from the
conventional exam system the online exam was developed as an examination system
that utilizes the internet network. Through the online exam system, examinees
can access exam questions and answer without requiring a question sheet or
answer sheet in physical form. However, there are still deficiencies in the
implementation of online examinations. Currently the online test execution is
often still held together in a room. This is less effective and makes no
significant difference between conducting online examinations and conventional
examinations [3]. Chula G. King's research shows that 73.6% of students think
that cheating on online tests is easier than doing it on conventional
examinations [4], Based on this it is necessary to improve the effectiveness of
online examinations so that they can be carried out remotely and without
supervision. The way to minimize cheating on online exams, especially
impersonating is to develop a continuous authentication system on online exam
applications that can validate the suitability of the examinees and identify
participants who cheated during the exam. Hopefully, by the authentication in
the online exam application makes online test activities can be done remote and
unattended supervisors but can be implemented properly and without any fraud.
