Send individual exams? #31

Randexam has a method of sending individual solutions to each student. Would it be possible to modify it so that it can also send the exam to each student? This would be useful so that exams can be administered remotely, like take home exams.

It's certainly technically possible to do this. I'm not sure that I will have time to implement it myself, however. When would you need this?

Another option is to shift your exam to PrairieLearn. This is a fully-online system for exams, which supports all the same features as randexam (randomization of exams and answers, latex, etc). Most of the engineering courses at Illinois have switched from randexam to PrairieLearn, as have MATH 231 (Vadim) and MATH 415 (Philip). There is a bit of a learning curve to using PrairieLearn, but I think you would have time to do this if you want. This would allow you to easily run the exam fully online.

Well, the midterm is the week after the break, but it can be postponed and most likely it will be. But I will look into PrairieLearn too. Thanks!
