DRS e-Marker® - A 2006 summer success
DRS e-Marker® solutions were deployed across the country in processing 50% of this summer’s AQA GCSE exam series.
Some of the vital statistics of this summer’s examination series were:
6,400 examiners used e-Marker® to mark almost 4,000,000 scripts.
51,000,000 marks were collected from 80 different exam papers for 1,300,000 candidates using CMI+ (Computer Marking from Image Plus).
This is the second successful year of operation and the figures are almost double the number marked during summer 2005 marking. A similar increase is expected for 2007.
Working closely with DRS Intrinsica helped develop parts of e-Marker®, a sophisticated electronic marking technology that is transforming the way examiners are marking exam papers.
Typical of many of Intrinsica’s developments, this system was built connecting back-end systems to secure web-based solutions which provide capabilities such as secure authorisation and authentication, tracking/resolution, data matching, dynamic real time information and form-based data collection.
