Digiexam offers the possibility to use the web application Geogebra as an external tool. Students can use the functionality offered in the web application but in a locked environment.
The external tool needs to be added by an Account Manager before it's available for teachers to enable it in an exam. It's important that you test the external tool internally and verify that the feature offers the correct functionality.

Take an exam in Digiexam with an external tool
Students can start an external tool in the Digiexam client before entering the exam. The actual exam is started according to the normal procedure/routine and the external tool is available in the exam.
Suggested steps:
1. A teacher allows the external tool to be used in an exam.
2. A teacher starts the exam according to the normal procedure/routine or by scheduling a start to receive an examID for the students to use. A scheduled exam provides an examID, but students can't start the exam until the scheduled time or the teacher starts the exam in the exam monitoring view.
3. The examID can be communicated to the students and they can find the exam by entering the examID in the Digiexam client. Note that external tools can be accessed before students start the exam.
The student enters the examID and can find the exam
4. The exam's taken with the external tool available in the Digiexam client.
