MGU Launches QR Code-Based Evaluation System
Mahatma Gandhi University (MGU) has created a new system using QR codes to grade exams.
After the exams, teachers scan a code on each student's paper to enter their marks.
The system quickly calculates the results and shares them with the students.
It helps speed up the grading process, and the university can keep track of how it’s all going.
This new system, developed with the help of university staff and funding, lets students get their results faster.
MGU plans to expand the system to cover more exams in the future.
Mahatma Gandhi University (MGU) has implemented a QR code-based evaluation system.
The system helped publish second-semester results quickly.
Theory exams concluded on May 14, followed by practical exams on May 16.
The software was developed by MGU's School of Computer Sciences.
The university plans to extend this system to postgraduate examinations.
