Remark Classic OMR® 3.0

Overview

Remark Classic OMR® software from Gravic, Inc. scans and processes data from survey forms, tests and other scannable forms. The software, combined with an OMR reader, recognizes filled-in optical marks (bubbles) on scantron forms, which automates the data collection process.
By integrating Remark Classic OMR® into Magenta Suite, DATA BLOCKS makes it possible to automatically define scantron forms for scanning without the need to learn a separate package.

In other words, Magenta automatically creates the template for Remark Classic OMR® to use for scanning.
Data Blocks/Remark integration
The order of the fields to be scanned are selected in Magenta with the ability to shuffle that order at any time (version 4.0 and newer).

Defaults automatically determine edit characteristics to check for multiple marks, etc. These may be overridden from within the Remark Classic OMR® Template Editor.

Once the scan fields have been defined in Magenta, the information is automatically sent to the scan portion of Remark Classic OMR®. Scanning can be done directly from within Magenta or directly through Remark Classic OMR®.

Reading Forms

Remark Classic OMR® software, with a supported OMR reader (see chart on the Technical Specifications page), reads and processes your survey forms or test forms. Remark Classic OMR® recognizes data from OMR fields (bubble fields). Built-in exception handling easily locates and allows you to correct or verify any erroneously marked forms (i.e., a person fills in two marks for a question, or fails to answer a question).

Remark Classic OMR® has a spreadsheet-style data display which makes automated data entry a snap to use.

Data Collection and Response Tabulation

Remark Classic OMR® includes Remark Quick Stats® for data analysis, which allows you to tally surveys or grade tests with the click of a button. You can tabulate your survey and then run reports such as an item analysis, item statistics or crosstabs to view your results. If you administer tests, the software can automatically grade them. For a test, you can specify an answer key, grade scale and other options, and then the software can grade the test and produce statistics and graphs representing item analysis, frequency distribution, student scores and several other test statistics. Remark Classic OMR® also produces a grade report for each student, which can be printed and handed back to the student.

Data Export

Once your scantron forms have been read and processed, the software can save the data to one of over 30 different output formats for use with virtually any analysis package (such as SPSS, dBase, Access, Excel or Lotus 1-2-3). Remark Classic OMR® can even save your data to an HTML format for publishing on the Internet or Intranet.
