    1: \label{exam_basics}
    2: 
    3: There are multiple things here that you will need in order to run an exam.
    4: \begin{enumerate}
    5: \item You will need to be able to get a file from your scanning office
    6: that is a scan of the bubblesheets.
    7: \item You will need to modify the scantronformat.tab file to properly
    8: describe what your data file looks like.
    9: \end{enumerate}
   10: 
   11: To see a homework problem set turned into a bubblesheet exam you need to set the parameter 'problemtype' for the set to 'exam' using the \textbf{Parameter Manager}, see section \ref{Course_Setting_Parameters}.
   12: The set of problems now should automatically convert to a
   13: ``bubbled input'' display, both online and when printing.
   14: You should be able to print out all of the exams now and there will be
   15: an individualized exam for each student.
   16: 
   17: When grading the exam you will need to 
   18: \begin{enumerate}
   19: \item View any problem within the set
   20: \item Click on
   21: \includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{pgrd}
   22: \textbf{Content grades}
   23: \item Click on
   24: \includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{stat}
   25: \textbf{Grade/Manage/Review Bubblesheets}
   26: \item You will then need to upload the bubblesheet data file to the LON-CAPA
   27: server
   28: \item Once it is uploaded go back to the 
   29: \textbf{Grade/Manage/Review Bubblesheet} screen
   30: \item Fill in the \textbf{Specify file and which Folder/Sequence to grade} form 
   31: \end{enumerate}
   32: 
   33: From there on out LON-CAPA tries to describe what is going on in detail so
   34: reading the screen and answering the questions should be straight
   35: forward.
   36: 
   37: We are also supporting anonymous mode of using bubblesheet exams. 
   38: 
   39: Basically some people don't want to take the time to hand out 300
   40: exams to individual students (e.g., to make sure Alice gets Alice's exam and
   41: Bob gets Bob's exam.) So we have another mode, where we generate
   42: different exam versions all of which have a 6-letter 'CODE' which
   43: control the random numbers. The generation and grading of these is a
   44: bit more complex.
   45: \begin{enumerate}
   46: \item Go to a resource in a course
   47: \item Click
   48: \includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{prt}

   53: \item Specify formatting information for the printouts of your exam
   54: \item Click \fbox{Next}
   55: \item Type in the number of exams you want generated
   56: \item If you want to save the CODEs for later so the bubbled input can be
   57:     validated, type in a name to save them under
   58: \item Click \fbox{Next}
   59: \item Print them out
   60: \item Fill in some bubblesheet forms
   61: \item Get them scanned
   62: \item Upload the scan results
   63: \item Go to a resource in the exam 
   64: \item Click

   69: \includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{stat}
   70: \textbf{Grade/Manage/Review Bubblesheets}
   71: \item Select the map, datafile, bubblesheet format that knows where a CODE
   72:      is on the form, and the name that CODEs where saved under
   73: \item Click \fbox{Grading: Validate Bubblesheet Records}
