A tablet-based paper exam grading system

Published: 30 June 2008 Publication History

Abstract

We present the design and implementation of a system which allows a standard paper-based exam to be graded via tablet computers. The paper exam is given normally in a course, with a specialized footer that allows for automated recognition of each exam page. The exam pages are then scanned in via a high-speed scanner, graded by one or more people using tablet computers, and returned electronically to the students. The system provides many advantages over regular paper-based exam grading, and boasts a faster grading experience than traditional grading methods.
