Scan exams with EvaExam
The use of scanable exams offers lecturers numerous advantages, including automatic evaluation and reduced workload. The “EvaExam” tool is used at the University of Leipzig. In addition to single- and multiple-choice questions, different query variants can be used. The tool enables the digital creation of question libraries for exam environments. The individual design of the exam sheet is done automatically through functions such as the randomization of the question selection and the order of the question and answer. After scanning the exams, the system performs an automatic pre-correction of the answers, which saves the lecturers a lot of time.
Security software for workstations

Service Desk (First-Level Support)
The service desk of the Leipzig University Computer Centre (URZ) is the central contact point for all enquiries concerning the services offered by the URZ. Thus, the service desk acts as a link between the users and the specialist departments of the URZ. Enquiries that cannot be answered conclusively immediately are recorded in the service desk and forwarded to the respective specialist departments of the URZ and answered by them.
Setting up mailing lists
The service can be used to set up and manage e-mail distribution lists (mailing lists) using the Mailman programme. This web-based software offers various options for the settings. The circular mail is sent from the usual e-mail programme to a special e-mail address, which is then distributed. These mailing lists are used to realise easy-to-use communication within a group of recipients. The open mailing lists offer all interested parties a communication platform for specific topics. The closed lists are mainly used to discuss application-specific issues.
