Alternatives to Using Scantron

Bring-your-own-device (BYOD) Testing: For faculty looking to move away from paper exams or Scantrons, online testing is available through HuskyCT. Online testing can be offered in the classroom or as an at-home assessment. For faculty wishing to administer online testing in the classroom (BYOD testing), UConn’s ITS has verified that all lecture classrooms have Wi-Fi capabilities sufficient to support this testing. Any classroom listed in UConn’s classroom directory (classrooms.uconn.edu/classroom-directory/) as “fixed-auditorium” has been verified.   

Gradescope Bubble Sheet (pilot program): ITS is piloting bubble sheet scanning through Gradescope. This may replace Scantron for bubble sheet scanning functionality in the future. Gradescope provides a more convenient scanning solution that does not require expensive and custom scan sheets, and can be managed entirely through HuskyCT.

The Testing Center: Provides efficient administration and proctoring of semester exams to UConn students as well as students from other institutions. The UConn Testing Center adheres to the National College Testing Association (NCTA) Professional Standards and Guidelines and provides a valuable service to students, faculty, and staff by promoting honesty, integrity, and fairness in a helpful and supportive testing environment.
