Test & Data Scanning

Scheduling

A graduate assistant is available to scan tests 20 hours per week. Scanning schedules are available upon request. Exams are scanned on a first-come first-serve basis. Faculty may leave tests in the UTLC office for later scanning. Tests will be scanned in 24-36 hours and instructors will be notified when the process has been completed. During midterm and final exams, exams always have priority over data collection.

Fall 2009 Sandbox/Scanning Schedule:

Monday & Wednesday: 9 AM - 1:30 PM

Tuesday: 9 AM  - 3 PM

Thursday: 9 AM - 5 PM

Friday: 11 AM - 5 PM

The test scanning program can provide an alphabetic listing displaying raw scores as well as means and standard deviations, an item analysis, and a frequency distribution. This information can be exported into an Excel compatible file. The scanners cannot mark incorrect responses on the scantron form.

NOTE: Please do not post grades on a website or in a physical location accessible to other students (door, wall, note board). You CAN enter grades in the Blackboard course management software where students will only see their own grades. See FERPA Guidelines on Release of Grades and GPA Information for more information regarding this policy.

Reports Available - Data Collection and Faculty Evaluations (standard forms)

The only report available from the data scanning program is a raw count of the number of responses for each possible response. Data can be exported to various formats for use with Excel or other statistical packages.
