Mathematica Centrum is a mathematics competition center that prepares some of the best mathematics competitions in North America.
Since 1990, over 1,000,000 students in Canada and the United States have participated in their annual competitions.
Context
In a context of COVID-19 crisis and a constant desire to use technology to achieve its goals, the Mathematica Centrum asked us to develop for them a web application that would allow their students to train and take their exams online. The web application was also to help the teachers to manage the participation in the different competitions themselves.
THE SOLUTION
We were able to design and build an extremely stable web application that has already supported more than 15,000 simultaneous participations (thanks to the Load Balancer technology) and more than 50,000 total participations.
Developed features
Here is a non-exhaustive list of the features of the Mathematica web application
3 access levels with different roles - Administrator, Student and Teacher
Possibility of online examination with timer
Possibility of practicing examinations en ligne
User management
School management
Dashboard
Report management
Exporting and importing data
Management of competitions (examinations)
Archive management
Results
We are pleased to have been able to create a web-based solution and administrator interface that now allows the Mathematica Center to easily manage its users, schools, exams, and teachers while being able to analyze their competition results.
