Getting Results from a Scanner

After your students complete an assignment on bubble forms, the next step is to scan the forms to get the results into the
ExamView Test Manager. When you perform this step, the program reads the results and stores the data in the class record. If
your test includes open-ended questions, you need to manually score those questions and assign the point values using the
Edit Scores option.
