Paper Abstract:
|
Every year many students need to stay out of classes, for days or even weeks. Most of them, due to unexpected situations such as illness or pregnancy. In this paper we present a proposal that aims to provide a way to keep in touch teachers and students that are temporarily out of classes. This proposal consists in the use of the virtualization technology to create an environment in which teachers can deliver the content presented in class to the absent student. To achieve this goal, it is used a virtual machine, termed virtual desktop in this work, that contains an operating system, the material presented in class and the applications the student needs to perform tasks proposed by teachers. |
