What is a scantron sheet?Scantron sheet is a term that has become almost synonymous with any machine-readable bubble form used for electronic optical mark recognition data collection. As Kleenex is to tissue, scantron sheet is to scan form, OMR form, bubble form, bubble sheet, data collection form, etc!How are scantron sheets used?In tandem with an optical mark reader (OMR scanner) or an image scanner, scantron sheets have many uses. Education, business and government have all come to depend on them for speed and accuracy in data collection. Once designed and printed, some of their applications are: tests, answers sheets, assessments, evaluation forms such as teacher evaluations or course evaluations, community and consumer surveys, questionnaires, forms to track inventory and sales, etc. For example, due to its extremely low error rate, low cost and ease-of-use, optical mark recognition is a popular method of tallying votes.Once scantron forms are filled out, they are then read by either an optical mark recognition machine or imaging scanner using data collection software especially designed for electronic, machine-readable data capture. Data applications include scoring, reporting, analysis, and exporting to different file formats. Create a web survey form from a scantron sheetYou can even take a paper-based scantron sheet created with DATA BLOCKS' software and, in tandem with Remark software (for either an OMR or page scanner), immediately create a web survey version!How can DATA BLOCKS help me create my own scantron sheet?DATA BLOCKS has the complete low cost-time saving solution to your data collection needs, no matter whether you want to use an optical mark reader or an image scanner: our Magenta or Concord form design and print software.Yes, you may design and print your own scantron sheets in-house for EITHER an optical mark reader or an image scanner!
