Abstract
This work presents a novel approach to evaluate the relevance of online quizzes and assignments on the success of students in an online exam, using Bayesian Networks BNs. The case under consideration is the module Preparation to Computer Science and Internet Certificate PC2i, learned in licenses’ first year, using the online platform Moodle, in Tunisia [6]. The main problem to be faced is what pedagogical activities are to be used in order to prepare students to succeed their C2i certification exam. BNs are used to automatically model relations between licenses’ names, assignments, quizzes and results of students in an online exam.
