Turn your phone or tablet into an optical grading machine to grade assessments in a flash (similar to Scantron)

Do you currently use Scantron sheets in you classroom? Are you currently looking for a system where you can administer multiple choice assessments more effectively than you do now?

If you answered yes to either of these, you may want to take a look at ZipGrade.  ZipGrade is an iOS or Android app that turns your phone or tablet into an optical grading machine.   The app scans answer sheets, grades them automatically, and organizes the results for later review.  The answer sheets are available in multiple sizes (up to 50 questions) and are free to download from the app or website.

Download the app for free which allows 100 free scans.   The free scans provide you a test run to see how you can best use ZipGrade in your classroom.   After the 100 free scans, the full version can be purchased for $6.99/year. Use it in your classroom to provide instant feedback to students by grading

  • exit tickets
  • Warm-up activities
  • Summative/Formative Assessments

In addition, the app allows you to easily self reflect the topics that need to be retaught since you have the ability to do an item analysis which provides immediate feedback and statistics on class comprehension.
