Abstract

See full text

Computerized systems for optically scanning 'bubble' sheet responses to test questions and then electronically scoring and reporting test results are provided. The systems employ templates which contain (a) computer readable images of the test questions and (b) overlay records which contain (i) the coordinates of icons representing the possible answers to the questions and (ii) an identification of the correct answers. The templates are merged with the scanned 'bubble' sheet responses and the results displayed on a video monitor as if the test had been administered on a computer, rather than through the use of a 'bubble' sheet. The templates minimize the amount of computer storage space required to produce the video display of the test results.
