    Creation of educational games — Project based learning in e-Learning systems course
    (IEEE, 2017-04)
    ;
    ;
    ;
    In this paper we present a successful example of implementation of project-based learning in e-Learning Systems course. Starting with an overview of the organization of the “e-Learning Systems” course held at the Faculty of Computer Science and Engineering (FCSE) in Skopje, we look into the importance of project-based learning as a learning method, the benefits of team work, and also we describe the purpose of educational games. The paper focuses on the general form of the project assigned to students which we describe in details, the organization of the lab exercises and the process of implementation of the projects. Based on the results that we will present, we may conclude that we have managed to organize the course in such a way that many of the students will achieve the course goals and pass, and also, will have exciting and challenging project to work on. We believe that the material in this paper will be valuable to other lecturers that teach similar or even quite different courses, and also facing the problem of teaching a course with high student/teacher ratio.

    Mobile phones are already approaching penetration rates of close to 80 per cent in some parts of the world. Mobile payments, or “m-payments”, are expected to become an important part of retail payments. M-payments are defined as payments that are carried out via mobile phone. M-commerce as a wide area could be divided into mobile E-commerce and M-trade area. Different models of mobile payments are proposed considering the physical disposition. Financial service provider is essential mediator among customers, merchants and banks. The iMS specification proposed in this paper enables mobile payments with one click of a button. Different levels of security have to be implemented for small, medium and large transaction of funds.

    E-Learning Realised By E-Testing
    (Institute of Informatics, Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, Macedonia, 2001)
    ;
    In this paper we introduce an e-Learning upgrade to the current system for online computer-based testing, applied at the PMF Institute of Informatics. This upgrade offers a possibility for the students to attend the lectures online during the school year and at the same time possibility to check their knowledge. The system is build on a well structured organization of the testing questions. It is tree organization with multilevel relations between the database elements. The students are classified according to their study area, and they can attend the lectures only for the subjects they are subscribed to. After attending single lecture, in order to pass to the next one, students have to pass through a test which will show if they have obtained the knowledge from that lecture. The organization of the testing questions implements random positioning of the possible answers that gives possibility not to correlate the question with the answer position instead of learning the essence of the task.

    e-Assessment cloud solution: Architecture, organization and cost model

    Several challenges address the existing eAssessment systems, such as accurate evaluation, security and data privacy, performance, scalability etc. Our focus in this paper is on e-Assessment scalability and performance. We have developed a new SOA architecture of a cloud hosted e-Assessment system to achieve sustainable performance as a highly scalable and elastic solution. The proposed organization solution is based on three modules (subsystems): management module, reporting module, and assessment module. The built in logic enables an efficient environment where minimum resources will be utilized during exploitation. The proposed system organization ensures that the assessment module, as active subsystem for each assessment, will work with much smaller data compared to the centralized one. The cost model developed for this solution analysis this cloud based solution against the existing e-Assessment web application. Therefore, we expect that this solution will have several benefits, like overall cost reduction and better performance.

    The Architecture of an ‘Ultimate’e-Assessment System
    (2009)
    ;
    In the past two decades the area of e-learning was dominated by monolithic application silos. Modern Learning Management Systems (LMS) are facing the challenges for greater interoperability, flexibility, reusability, accessibility and manageability, as well as for sharing learning resources and components. Extensive research has been done in the field of sharing learning content and resources, but there is lack of theoretical and practical examples of systems sharing components and their functionality. Assessment is an important integral part of every learning process. A lot of software packages exist in the market to realize automated assessment, but most of them are stand alone applications without possibilities for interoperability, adaptability according to learner characteristics and possibilities for content and functionalities reuse. In this paper we present the architecture of an “ultimate” e-Assessment System. This System should be able to work as a standalone e-assessment application, be able to use and exchange content and components with other e-assessment systems, and at the same time it should be easily attachable to any existing applications in educational and business environments.

    Infrastructure for e-Testing
    (2005)
    ;
    The characteristics of the society in which we live, where knowledge and the ways of its use are the most important in everyday life, brings new challenges for higher education. The extensive use of technology in learning and working is forcing its use in the assessment process. A lot of software packages exist in the market to realize automated assessment. In this article we analyze different methods used for testing and present new frontiers, especially in cases where the number of students is very big (several hundreds), and in cases in which students can take exams every month. Using the results from this analysis we have designed and developed a new assessment system. We also give a report of the results from using e-testing tool for assessment of student knowledge, concentrating on the effectiveness of it use for assessment purposes.

    This research paper presents a comprehensive data analysis and visualization of Flutur Shop’s sales performance in Kosovo and North Macedonia. Our objective is to understand the underlying patterns and trends that can provide valuable insights for strategic decision-making and future growth. We have analyzed the data using various descriptive statistics, time series analysis, product analysis, geographic analysis, salesperson analy sis, cancellation analysis, and discount analysis. Our methodology includes data preprocessing, data wrangling, and the utilization of modern data visualization techniques using Python libraries such as pandas, matplotlib, seaborn, and Plotly. By comparing the sales performance across both countries, we have identified key differences and similarities in product preferences, sales trends, and market dynamics. The results of our analysis offer a better understanding of the customer base and market potential in each country, enabling Flutur Shop to optimize its operations, marketing strategies, and product offerings. Furthermore, we discuss the limitations of our study and propose directions for future research to enhance the scope and depth of the analysis.

    Architecture of modern e-learning systems
    (Institute of Informatics, Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, Macedonia, 2008)
    ;
    In the past two decades the area of e-learning was dominated by monolithic application silos. These e-learning platforms are usually vendor specific and do not provide the flexibility a learner needs, interoperability and pedagogical flexibility. The concept of ëwhat an application isî is rapidly changing in the recent years. With the advances of Internet technologies, as well as social interactions online, there has been a shift from monolithic application silos toward service oriented approaches where flexible granular functional components expose services accessible to applications via loosely coupled standards-based interfaces. This paper gives an overview of the existing trends in the design of modern e-learning systems emphasizing issues and challenges that will bring us to the sufficiently sophisticated eLearning system that will be able to adapt its behaviour depending on the learners knowledge, intelligently leading him to a particular goal by monitoring is progress.
