Some work on help.
1: \label{exam_basics}
2: There are multiple things here that you will need in order to run an exam.
3: \begin{enumerate}
4: \item you will need to be able to get a file from your scanning office
5: that is scan of the bubbled scantron sheets.
6: \item you will need to modify the scantronformat.tab file to properly
7: describe what your data file looks like.
8: \end{enumerate}
9:
10: To see a homework problem set turned into a bubble sheet exam you need to - set the parameter 'problemtype' for the set to 'exam' in PARM.
11:
12: The set of problems now it should automatically convert to a
13: 'bubbled input' display, both online and when printing.
14:
15: You should be able to print out all of the exams now and there will be
16: an individualized exam for each student.
17:
18: When grading the exam you will need to
19: \begin{enumerate}
20: \item goto the set
21: \item click PGRD
22: \item click on 'Grade Scantron Forms'
23: \item you will then need to upload the sacntron data file to the Lon-CAPA
24: server (it is the bottom option on that screen.)
25: \item one it is uploaded go back to the 'Grade Scnatron forms' screen
26: \item fill in the top form, and click 'Validate records'
27: \end{enumerate}
28:
29: From there on out it tries to describe what is going on in detail so
30: reading the screen and answering the questions should be straight
31: forward.
32:
33: We are also supporting annonymous mode of using scantron
34: form exams.
35:
36: Basically some people don't want to take the time to hand out 300
37: exams to indiviual students (I.e make sure Alice gets Alice's exam and
38: Bob gets Bob's exam.) So we have another mode, where we generate
39: different exam versions all of which have a 6-letter 'CODE' which
40: control the random numbers. The generating and grading of these is a
41: bit more complex.
42: \begin{enumerate}
43: \item got to a resource in a course
44: \item hit PRT
45: \item select 'Problem from <mapname> for anonymous students'
46: \item click Next ->
47: \item type in the number of exams you want generated
48: \item if you want to save the CODEs for later so the bubbled input can be
49: validated, type in a name to save them under
50: \item click Next->
51: \item print them out
52: \item fill in some scantron forms
53: \item get them scanned
54: \item upload the scan results
55: \item goto PGRD
56: \item click 'Grade' scantron form
57: \item Select the map, datafile, scantron format that knows where a CODE
58: is on the form, and the name that CODEs where saved under
59: \item click 'Validate Scantron Records'
60: \item follow the on screen prompts.
61: \end{enumerate}
