Praktomat
Praktomat was created at Universitat Passau in
Germany. The purpose of creating Praktomat was to build an
environment which would help students enhance the quality
of their code. Along with automated grading it also has a
focus on peer reviews. The creators of Praktomat felt that

Python, and is hosted on SourceForge.
Observations
My contention that student project submissions should
be backed by a process to encourage best practices, and a
software to automate as well as facilitate the process, has
become stronger after reviewing WEB-CAT and Praktomat.
What best practices should we incorporate in the
process? What are the features that an automated grading
software should contain? WEB-CAT, Praktomat, and several
other software give a good starting point. We can learn from
their successes and failures, and enhance the offering by
adding our own experience.

Definition of Terms
The following are terms that the researcher used for
better understanding about the concepts in the study. The
terms are defined operationally, as how they are used in the
study.
Computer. In the study, it is the machine used by the
researcher in making the documentation of the study and
the developing the computerized system.
Programmer. As used in the study, this person creates and
designs the system.
Database. Is an organized collection of data for one or
more purposes and usually in digital form.
Grades. To allow the students have an access to their over
all grades taken from their prelim, midterm, pre-finals and
finals.

METHODS OF RESEARCH AND PROCEDURES
Research Design
The method of research we used in the study A
Proposed Computerized Grading System is the descriptive
type of method research, because this kind of research
describes the present system, which is the manual way of
grading system based on the impressions of the respondents.
We used this kind of research because it is appropriate in
knowing the extent to which the different conditions of the
present set up of the study is.
Methods of Research
The descriptive survey method was used to achieve
the purpose of the study. We made a survey regarding about
the old system of recording grades, which is the manual way.
By that, we had come up with the idea that the manual way
should really be change into an automated one.
