For Efficient Examination Processing

In order to support electronic examinations at the TU Darmstadt, the E-Learning group offers a multi-level service for supervisory examinations. You can use our exam scanning service and its partial processes (generation & evaluation) take place electronically supported with the help of an examination system. Or you can conduct an e-examination, which is handled completely electronically on the computer.

For e-examinations, please observe the Statute for the Conduct of Electronic Examinations (E-Examination Statutes), which were passed in the Senate for the TU Darmstadt on 14 December 2022.

Opportunities at the TU Darmstadt

E-Exams

E-examinations held on site at the university are supervisory examinations whose creation, processing as well as execution and/or assessment are computer-based electronically. They can take place as a presence examination on the premises of the TU (e-examination) or as a distance examination – both step-by-step electronically by means of an examination system and orally via video conference. For e-examinations, the e-examination statutes must be observed. However, it is not necessary to change the module handbook. Likewise, a separate Moodle system (Moodle Exam) is available for e-examinations.

Examination Scanning

With this type of exam, the exam is also created in an exam software in the first step. Then, however, the exam is printed out on paper as usual and written on site in the lecture hall. In the next step, the examination sheets are scanned and evaluated in the examination software in a partially automated process on the basis of the scans. The e-examination regulations do not have to be taken into account here. Familiar procedures and examination settings are retained with this form of examination and yet a higher level of efficiency can be achieved in the examination handling process.
