Abstract
Internet-based problem solving activities are becoming more prevalent and the resulting learning efficiency gets greater and greater. This paper proposes an easy-to-access active learning system in which information regarding the certificate of qualification, and written and practical evaluation questions are databased. One of the advantages of the proposed system is filtering user-specific questions through the use of information on the user profile to which weight is applied, thereby evaluating learning of individual users, promoting their motivation for learning, and giving them a sense of achievement. Another advantage lies in the fact that the proposed system increases the rate of acquisition of qualification certificates through giving guidance on acquisition of certificates in computer literacy, which will renew learners’ attention and recognition of future career. The proposed system proved to enhance exam performance by up to 10%.
