As we already mentioned in our blog, the University of Malaga (UMA) presented the UDS Enterprise Virtual PC Plugin in the latest edition of MoodleMoot Global. This development, carried out by the UMA IT staff in close collaboration with the UDS Enterprise team, turned Moodle into the first e-Learning platform capable of providing Windows and Linux virtual desktops and applications as if they were just another educational resource. And not only that. The integration of UDS Enterprise with OpenGnsys also allows providing remote access to physical devices regardless of their location through Moodle.
Organizations of all types and sizes have trusted the UDS Enterprise connection broker for years, among other things, to facilitate remote working and distance learning. It is one of the intrinsic possibilities of our software, which allows secure access to any computer tool at any time, from any place and device.
The Covid-19 pandemic has imposed a new reality, in which work and teaching from home have become the only way for companies and educational centers to continue their activity. To help these entities know the best way to solve the challenges posed by this new situation, we have created a new section on our website on Remote Working.
About 60% of qualified workers could carry out their professional work from home. The potential number of jobs that could be developed from home amounts to something over 30%. This is data provided by the Banco de España in its report “Remote working in Spain”, prepared after surveying a group of companies. The objective of this document is to analyze how the adoption of remote work has evolved, the current situation, and the possibilities it offers in the future for different groups of workers and companies.
The students of the University of Málaga (UMA) are employing from their homes the same tools they use at the campus to follow their classes during the Covid-19 alarm state. Thanks to the Remote PC project with UDS Enterprise and OpenGnsys they can use the computers located in the educational center from anywhere . To facilitate access, another important development that leverages the great versatility of the UDS Enterprise connection broker also comes into play: the Moodle VirtualPC Plugin. Students enter the UMA Virtual Campus through any device with a web browser and, from there, thanks to the VirtualPC Plugin, they are provided access to a virtual machine or a physical computer.
The University of Cantabria (UC) is providing access to all teaching applications without limitations and through any device with UDS Enterprise. This connection broker is the cornerstone of the UNICAN Labs project, which allows students and teachers to use the computers located in the different classrooms in the campus from their homes, in order to use all the software they need to continue their lessons as usual during the alarm status by Covid-19. The IT department has developed this initiative with the close collaboration of the UDS Enterprise team.
