With the increase in cost and resources constraints experienced by many education institutions in Malaysia, the pressure to find alternative method to deliver teaching and assessment increases. Many institutions are moving into web-based teaching and learning because it is evident to be a solution to the overhead constraints and at the same time, support the current teaching and learning environment. Hence, a change in the style of teaching and learning prompted me to develop this e-Quest system. The introduction of distance learning, changes in technology, particularly the wider use of the World Wide Web meant that the Internet is an obvious medium to exploit. This thesis illustrates how software can be developed to face the changing world of education. This project will produce a software prototype of a multiple-choice question generator that promotes course links and administrative control. There are specifically two levels of user.
