As a 2nd wave of COVID-19 sweeps across Europe and remote learning increasingly becomes the norm, school, colleges and universities are facing an additional challenge – how to assess students who need to take examinations outside of the physical institution?
• How can a virtual exam hall be invigilated or proctored with the same level of privacy and security?
• How can an examiner be certain the person behind the keyboard is the student to whom the exam was assigned?
• How can strict timetabling be observed, or controls placed upon the students’ desktops to prevent them from visiting websites other than ones specifically chosen, or features such as ‘cut and paste’ disabled?
• How can a teacher, professor or invigilator contact students during the exam itself if there is a need to do so?
• How can colleges ensure that the virtual desktop an economically disadvantaged student has access to is the same as their more fortunate classmate’s?
• And how do we make it easy for educators to set and schedule an exam with just a few clicks?
Harnessing the power of Windows Virtual Desktop and Microsoft Azure, MxExam gives schools and colleges the ability to run a full timetable of online exams with the same level of privacy, security and integrity they would have in a physical exam hall, and at an extraordinarily low cost*.
