Scantron

A Scantron is a device used for quickly and accurately recording answers on multiple-choice test sheets. It works with specially designed paper that uses bubbles or circles to mark answers. When placed into the Scantron machine, it uses optical sensors to read the filled bubbles and automatically scores the test. This technology streamlines grading, especially for large groups, by providing fast, consistent results without needing manual scoring. Scantron is widely used in educational settings for exams, as well as in surveys and assessments, making test-taking and result analysis more efficient.
