Scorer now uses CAS authentication. When logging in, you will see the
same authencation screen you see when logging into PeopleSoft. Use the
same login credentials you've always used to access your reports.
Please Note: Exams which have been left at ITS will be disposed of
six months after the semester in which the exam was held.
Reports which have been generated by a Scorer run will remain in the
user's directory for 6 months. Reports older than
6 months will be archived. Reports older than 2 years will be purged from
the system.
Bubble sheets have not changed. Bubble sheets from last year will work
with the new system.
You still need to drop off your completed bubble sheets for scanning at ITS.
You will also need to pick up those bubble sheets after the scan is completed.
Pick up and drop off your bubble sheets across from the ITS main desk, room 102,
in the lobby of the Information Systems Building,
(building 54).
Note: You need an ITS ("jan" or "dana") account to use the new
scorer. Faculty who do not have an account should contact the solution center
at 523-1511 (or 888-520-7215 toll free) to obtain one.

Scorer has changed. Reports are now written in PDF format and accessed via
the web. All reports are published by default. An extra report, which lists
student names, points scored, percent scored and ID number is written in an
HTML table to facilitate import into MS Excel. The scorer postfile is also
written by default.
When your scorer run is executed, email will automatically be generated and
sent to the instructor of record for the given run. Included in that email
will be a URL where you can access the run's reports.
This URL is password protected. Only the instructor of record and any
designated T.A.s or G.A.s can access the site. The instructor of record can
grant and/or remove privileges to users who need access to the report's site.
You can access your reports
here.
The new scorer needs some information about your test very similar to what
you have provided in the past via the "Scanning Request Form".
Access the form, fill it out and present
it to ITS with the bubbled in scantron test results.
Important heuristics for students
Students cannot enter all 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 6s, 7s, or 8s into
the ID field on their test answer sheet. Students can use their 900
number, their emplid, the last 4 digits of their SSN or just leave the
field blank if they prefer.
If there is more than 1 test version, students need to bubble in the
correct test version number they are taking on their answer sheet. If
they omit bubbling in a test version number, their test will not be
graded.
