Exam Practice Test

- login, accept code of honour, justify the web cam (preferred via notebook/desktop) to see yourself and how you write, - download and display the fake exam, - handwrite something on a piece of paper, - scan and upload the piece of paper with your cellphone / tablet, - check the quality of your upload: download it again and check that you can easily read it, - submit finally your fake exam.

2) Do the exam:

- login 20 minutes before start time, - check 'code of honour', - enable microphone and webcam, - adjust the webcam to see yourself and how you write on the paper, - start exam at time, - upload your handwriting, - check and acknowledge the quality, - accept code of honour a second time, - submit the exam finally.

By default we transfer pictures from your webcam only once per second. But we recommend not to use 'mobile data'. Use an internet flatrate. If you do not have stable internet at home - try to find a stable internet location.
