Exam Revolution at the University of Applied Sciences at Darmstadt
transtec installs learning centre, laboratory and examination rooms at the University of Applied Sciences (UAS) at Darmstadt with Pano Logic Zero Clients.
Banbury, Oxfordshire, 12. August 2010. Darmstadt – after a successful start to the learning centre of the electrotechnology and IT faculty of the UAS at Darmstadt (Germany), the innovative zero client technology from Pano Logic is now being used for examinations. Up until recently, the students had to solve complicated programming tasks in their examinations by using the traditional paper and pen approach. This wasn’t possible on the PC as the configuration of every single computer would have been far too time consuming and complicated. The desktop virtualisation technology from Pano Logic now enables the temporary installation of a virtual desktop for every student from the central server. On these desktops, applications, which are needed for the students’ examinations, are precisely installed.
