South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences

The Challenge

Before implementing evaexam, South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences did not have a standardized, university-wide solution for digital exam management. Processes and systems varied by campus and department. Creating, reproducing, grading, and evaluating paper-based exams often involved manual steps and disconnected workflows.

Processing larger volumes of exams was particularly challenging. Scanning processes were time-consuming and prone to errors, while a lack of standardization and the need for extensive coordination required additional resources. The university therefore needed a solution that could help make exam processes more structured, transparent, and digital over the long term.

The Solution

Since 2021, selected departments at South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences have been using evaexam to gradually digitize the management of paper-based and multiple-choice exams. The platform supports major parts of the exam workflow, from creating and printing exams to scanning, grading, automated evaluation, and centralized archiving.

Key benefits include structured question management, statistical analysis, and the option for question-by-question blind grading. In this way, evaexam provides a shared digital foundation for different exam workflows while increasing structure, transparency, and traceability in day-to-day exam management.
