SSC Network Update

Markex Examination Scanning Service in SSCL

SSCL now offers a free Markex examination scanning service for departments in the Faculty of Social Science.  This is a read-only service suitable for instructors who do their own file editing and computerized marking with UWOVAX Markex or Windows 95 Scan Exam software. 

Some restrictions for this service are: 

• The SSCL ScanMark 2500 scanner  is an ink and pencil mark reader suitable for reading the new Markex Scantron Form No. F10193-WU.  The new form differs from the old one simply by its reddish colour required for use by ink-sensitive readers.  The old purple Markex forms cannot be read.  New forms are available from UWO’s Stationery Stores.
• The reading service is available in the SSCL Main Office, SSC 1228 during the hours 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday to Friday on a first-come, first-served basis.  We request that all forms provided to us must be in pre-counted crisscrossed piles of 50 sheets.
• The resulting file of scanned images will be sent to the instructor via E-mail or written to a diskette provided by the instructor.  Forms must be picked up by the professor on the same day as processing.  Exams will not be kept over night on SSCL premises.
