The IUPUI Testing Center now provides optical scanning services for IUPUI
faculty and staff who wish to use this technology for their tests, assessments,
and surveys. In addition, the Center has the capability of developing forms
that can be optically scanned for use with surveys, course evaluations,
and related instruments.
Scanning for university-based instruction, research, or related activities
is $0.15 per score-sheet. When dropping off scoresheets for scanning,
you should have a university account number and object code against which
to bill the scanning job.
Forms or survey design work is ideal for modest-sized data collection efforts
that do not require off-set printing. For example, creating a form and scanning
it can be a cost-effective alternative to hiring someone to keypunch the
results of a survey into a database or statistical analysis package. A fee
of $65.00 an hour will be charged for this service. Basic survey results can also be analyzed at $45.00 an hour and Advanced Statistical analysis starts at $65.00 an hour. We would be happy to work
with you on building this service in as part of a research or grant program.
Course evaluation is another service that is offered by the Testing Center.
We currently support the IU Multi-Op System,and provide a mechanism for a
school or unit to design their own evaluation form. Evaluation forms
are ordered early in the semester, are laser-printed, scanned, and
returned shortly after data collection is completed. Results
of the course evaluations can be printed out, e-mailed, or stored on disk
in a spreadsheet format. The results can be stored in a database for longitudinal
tracking either on servers maintained in the Testing Center or housed in
an academic unit. The price for overprinting Pearson® forms is $0.15 per sheet and
the cost for producing a laser-printed scoresheet is $0.25 per page.
The cost for scanning the document is $0.18 per sheet. Contact the Testing Center
for costs associated with long-term secure storing of course evaluation
information or customized longitudinal reporting.

The Testing Center Scanning Office is located in the Union Building Room
G015. On the south side of the Union Building is a loading zone where faculty/and
or staff can park to drop off or pick up their materials. The office is open from
8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday-Friday during non-holidays.
The turnaround time for scanning is typically four business hours (except
during midterms and finals when you can expect a 24-hour turnaround). Please
make sure that you fill out a Test Scoring Processing Form for each test that you submit for grading.
You can find detailed directions to the Scanning Office via our Maps webpage.
Instructors are encouraged to use the standard IUPUI Test Scoring Form for most of their routine assessments.
You may order the IUPUI Test Scoring Forms from Scanning Services. You may also order the forms directly from Office Depot
at 800-401-4824 or from their website, ask for Item No. 0540617. Please contact us directly if you plan on using a
form other than the IUPUI Test Scoring Form.
To help insure the correct processing of test data, students must follow
these guidelines:
A maximum of 200 questions may be scored on each test if you use the
IUPUI Test Scoring Form.
A key sheet (Test Scoring Form with the correct answers marked)
must be prepared by the instructor and submitted with each group of tests
to be scored. The following information must be on the key sheet
for your test scores to be scanned.
Only one correct answer per question is allowed.
Print your last name, first initial, middle initial, section number, and
course number in the spaces provided. Blacken the corresponding letter or
number in each grid. This information will appear in the report headings.
Write the number of the last question on the test in the spaces provided
below the blocks labeled A B C (i.e. 050, you would put a 5 in space B and
a 0 in space C). Then blacken the corresponding number in each grid.
Questions not answered on the keysheet will not be scored.
There are four kinds of statistical feedback that you may elect in a
test score report. These include the following:
