How to debit their scores? An ICT solution to assess accountancy students

The introduction in 2001 of a centralized E-learning platform at K.U.Leuven brought challenging opportunities for accounting courses to engage in E-learning. This paper deals with the problems encountered in the development of electronic tests and remediation exercises. First a list of requirements, to make the exercises as realistic as possible, is presented. Then we give an overview of issues with the available ICT platform and we end with a discussion of the newly developed software.
