CaTS is pleased to announce that REMARK, our new examination scoring software, is now available. Welcome packets have been distributed to all clients using our services during Spring and Summer A/C Semesters. Many of you have already switched to this product and are receiving reports and spreadsheets in the new formats. Over the summer, Exam System II will be phased out and Remark will become the standard package. We will continue to process special requests for Exam System II until October 1, 2014 to transition those who are new to REMARK in the Fall Semester.
REMARK documents are available on the Scanning website. These pages include report examples, request options and helpful information.
Some important highlights include:
- Costly header sheets are no longer required/used
- Multiple answer questions are permitted
- Extra Credit can now be identified and calculated
- Weighting is more flexible
- An additional spreadsheet format option has been made available in response to Faculty feedback
- Test Item statistics may also be exported
Paper reports are still available. However, electronic results are now distributed through FileLocker. FileLocker encrypts the data and eliminates the need to place passwords on each file. Before using FileLocker please remember:
- It is only available to Faculty/Staff (uses your “w” account)
- It is accessible with any on-campus connection
- Off campus connections must be made by first signing into VPN
If you have questions about this software, please visit the 035 Library Annex Scanning Services Center, call (937) 775-4027, or email scanning@wright.edu. Documentation is also available in hard copy format at the window. If you have questions about FileLocker or VPN, please contact the CaTS Help Desk at (937) 775-4827.
