Abstract

Currently the distance education has obtained a wider ever acceptance. One of the main tasks of distance education is the process of checking student’s knowledge by online examination. To conduct a fair examination and prevent unauthorized users to appear in the examination, different biometric technologies are used; we in this paper implement a fingerprint biometric system for distance education students and found by survey that the students are comfortable with fingerprint biometric system.
