What it does

• A teacher can register and create courses which the students can join.
• A teacher can also add a student individually by using his/her registration number.
• Inside the course, the teacher can also create exams (objective, subjective or both).
• A proctor can be assigned to an exam and the exam will start only once the proctor joins.
• A notification is sent to the proctor and students 15 minutes prior to the exam as a reminder.
• The proctor will be able to get the live webcam feed of any student on demand. The proctor can also send warnings in case of any suspicious activities.
• A discussion forum has been implemented in a course where students can clarify queries. Both text and images are allowed.
• We're storing responses of students in a file system, and the proctor can use these responses to correct the exams.
• Once correction is done, students will be able to see their result. A piechart is also there to show their result.

What we used to implement it:

• Frontend: JavaFX
• Backend: Java
• Database: MYSQL

Challenges we ran into

• It was the first time we used UDP, and we tried to run it over LAN. After a few tries and a little reading, we successfully did it.
• Creating a robust infrastructure for dynamically adding components in FXML.

What's next for Fair And Simple

• Randomly change videos of students and send signals when suspicious activities are detected.
• For detecting suspicious activities, use face detection and detect if there are multiple faces or a face isn't being detected.
