Pre-slugged answer keys work much better for scanning. Not only is the student ID bubbled in correctly, but the students name is also listed along with the assessment title. This is really helpful when youre looking for a specific answer sheet in a big stack. It also helps prevent errors scanning an answer sheet to the wrong assessment. Stuck? Try saving results, then scanning again. GradeCam can sometimes get stuck. In those cases, click on the Proceed to results button to save the assessments, go back to the assessment Overview page, then go back in to scan again. This gives GradeCam an opportunity to refresh itself and get unstuck. Call Illuminate if you have questions. If youre stuck and getting frustrated, give us a call. Our support staff is here to make sure you have the help you need to scan successfully.

Where to Start
1. When viewing your assessment list you may click the scan icon to enter the scanning screen, or... 2. You may opt to open the assessment by clicking on its name and then click Scan Student Answer Sheets on the screen that appears thereafter.

If this is the first time you are using GradeCam, Illuminate will prompt you to install the plugin. For directions on how to do this, click the link that applies to your computer. Install Plugin for PC Install Plugin for Mac Install Plugin for an older Mac running Version 10.4 You can check this by clicking the Apple icon, then About This Mac.
There are 2 different scanning modes. Whichever mode you pick, you should stick with it for your entire scanning sessions (i.e., do not jump back and forth between modes).
Assessment Scanning
Page 9
Pick Teacher Mode if you want all students' results to display on the screen as they are scanned. Note some privacy is offered because the student ID is displayed. Also note you or a student may click Show to reveal which questions were missed.
Pick Student Mode if you want each student's scores to display on the screen as they are scanned. Press Enter on your keyboard after scanning to clear the screen so the next student who scans will not see how other students performed.
On your computer screen you should see what your document camera "sees" (i.e., if you see yourself on the screen, it means your document/web camera is pointed at you), and this is where you will need to place your answer documents one at a time. When you are ready to scan your first answer document (noting the value of letting students scan their own), you should do the following:
Assessment Scanning
Page 10
1. If necessary, click the Settings link to set the document camera to the one you plan to use (if it is not already displaying what it sees on your screen) and to change other settings (e.g., to "flip" the camera if the image on your screen shows your answer document upside down based on how you want to place it). 2. Place your answer document so that the entire black box (as outlined above) appears clearly (and upright) in the camera window. Because the image is not mirrored, moving the answer document to your right will move it to the left on the screen, and vice versa. See the "Having Trouble Scanning" lesson for more details if you have trouble.
If you are scanning in Teacher Mode: After a sheet registers with the system, move on to the next student's sheet (and so on). If you are scanning in Student Mode: After a sheet registers with the system, press Enter on your keyboard to clear the screen so the next student who scans will not see how any other students performed, then move on to the student's sheet (and so on). When finished with your last student, click Teacher Mode and then Yes (as shown above).

GradeCam 'Settings'
This lesson describes the latest 'Settings' update from GradeCam. These include ... - Increased Speed and Flexibility - Overall improved bubble reading - Support for up to 5 Responses per Question - Control over Blank and Mutiple responses - Fixes issues related to 'blank' or unused columns on answer sheets - Fixes issues related to frequent pop-up activity
Where to Start

1. Selected Camera Allows you to pick a particular camera connected to your system that you wish to use to scan. Be sure to plug the camera in before opening your web browser. 2. Flip Image Allows you to flip your camera image 180 degrees. The sheets should be right side up (not upside down) when viewed in the GradeCam window. Adjust accordingly.
New Setting
Assessment Scanning
Page 14
GradeCam has reintroduced the option to check for unexpected Blank or Multiple Responses. The option is now combined into one. If you select this option, GradeCam will pop-up unexpected answers and you will be forced to Accept or Ignore the pop ups.
Advanced Settings
Click Advanced to see more ways in which you can control scanning.
1. GradeCam should "think" about marks for no more than This controls the maximum time GradeCam will spend trying solve problems it encounters. When GradeCam suspects there could be an issue with bubbling, it will try to improve the accuracy for no longer than the set amount of seconds. If after this amount of time GradeCam cannot confidently and accurately read the form, it will pop up the dialog box, prompting you to intervene and "help" it figure out the questionable bubbles. If GradeCam is able to read all bubbled answers within this amount of time, it will scan as soon as possible, no pop-up prompt will appear, and it may not take the full amount of time you've allotted if extra time isn't needed. If you want to use standard/ default time, select 3 Seconds. 2. My trust level in GradeCam's ability to resolve issues is
Assessment Scanning
Page 15
This controls the maximum predicted error probability with which GradeCam will determine which answers are bubbled (in other words, its sensitivity to error). This impacts the frequency with which the pop-up window can appear (prompting you to indicate which answers to use when GradeCam can't determine 1 or more bubbled answers). Thus, the smaller the chance of error, the more frequently the pop-up prompt can appear. If you want to use standard/default sensitivity, select .001 - Moderate Normal Popup Activity TIP: Once you 'trust' GradeCam, you can adjust the default settings to help improve scanning speed.

When finished making any Advanced scanning changes, click Save, back to General Settings.
Next Steps
Once you are ready to start scanning, you might want to see the "Scan Student Responses with GradeCam" lesson for guidance.

Illuminate Permission
You will not be able to complete this lesson/process unless you have the ability to see and use the "Process images from a file" button below the camera preview window. If you don't see this button, your district's Illuminate administrator can provide you with this access, and the "Add Sheet-Fed Scanning Permissions" lesson can provide him or her with guidance in how to do so.
You must use your scanner to scan sheets as JPEG, TIFF, or PNG files into a folder/ directory on your computer or file server. Please consult your scanner's manual or support center for how to use your scanner. Here are some suggested guidelines when using your scanner: DPI: 96-200 Color: Grayscale (please don't use color or black & white)
Assessment Scanning
Page 19
Pages: 1-sided, 8.5x11 letter sized paper Format: JPEG, TIFF, Multi-page TIFF, and PNG You may adjust contrast if necessary, but never adjust brightness Images must display right-side-up when the file is viewed on-screen
It is recommended you consider how to best store and access scanned images. This will vary depending on how your scanner or copier is set up. One thing that is very important to note is that GradeCam will process all the images in the file folder you select. That means you should keep all the images of a particular assessment together in the same folder. You should not put images of other assessments in that folder, otherwise, they will be processed together. Note: GradeCam will not be able to scan files if they are scanned in black and white or are in PDF format. It will also fail to scan if the sheet size is something other than 8.5x11.
You must now login to Illuminate, go to Assessments, and get to the point where you're ready to scan student responses. You may do this by either creating a new assessment via GradeCam or opening an existing assessment and clicking the scan icon. Note: If you are creating a new assessment, you may not use the sheet fed scanner to scan the answer key. You may either use a webcam or document camera to scan the answer key, or you may manually enter the answers.
Assessment Scanning
Page 20
Choose to scan in Student Mode or Teacher Mode by selecting the preferred method if necessary. One advantage to Student Mode is that if you need to verify any student responses (e.g., a student left some answers blank or bubbling is unclear), you will see the name of the student on your screen.
1. Navigate to the folder on your computer that contains your student's answer sheet images. The same, single file folder must contain all image files you want to import into your assessment in Illuminate. None of the sheets should have been processed in Illuminate already. Make sure you are accessing the right images for your particular assessment!
Assessment Scanning
Page 21
Your images will begin to process in whichever mode (Student Mode or Teacher Mode) you selected. Do not attempt to change modes at (or after) this point.
Assessment Scanning
Page 22
You might be prompted to verify certain student responses (e.g., a student left some answers blank or bubbling is unclear). Note these important features: 1. The student ID of the answer sheet in question is displayed at the top of the verification screen. 2. You may change answers as necessary. Click on an empty bubble to fill it, or a filled bubble to empty it. 3. Click Accept to make any changes take effect.
Assessment Scanning
Page 23
4. Click Ignore to ignore the message and let the system read the answers with its best guess. Note: if you don't make any changes to the answers, Accept and Ignore will act in the same way.
Proceed to Results
When all files are done processing, click Proceed to Results. If you do not click this button, the results will not be saved. Note: If you were scanning in Teacher Mode, you must click Teacher Mode and then Yes to reach this screen.
Next Steps
You may now work with your assessment in the same manner as a regular GradeCamCam scan.

Scanning Troubleshooting
Scanning Troubleshooting - START HERE
You can easily troubleshoot any scanning issue you might have. The diagram below gives an overall look at the steps you will walk through. This lesson will ask you a series of questions to help you solve your issue.
Have You Scanned Before Using This Computer and This Scanner?
No - Click here if you have not scanned successfully using this computer and scanner. Yes - I have successfully used this computer and scanner before to scan an assessment. Proceed to the next step.
Assessment Scanning
Page 25
Assessment Scanning
Page 26
Assessment Scanning
Page 27
Restarting your browser and/or computer can often resolve issues quickly. When looking at the preview window, is your page upside down? The page must be right side up. Go to Settings - select Flip Image - click Save Settings. Is your camera selected in the settings? Go to Assessments -> GradeCam -> Settings to select your camera. Dont forget to save! Are your sheets blurry or not in focus in preview window? Slowly adjust your focus to get it right, and then try rescanning your sheets. Have you set the appropriate height from sheets for your camera? Sheets too close or too far may not scan. Lower and raise camera slowly and make sure the black rectangle surrounding the bubbles fills the preview window. Did you test your answer sheets? If you modified answer sheets, you need to test and ensure they will work. Are you using a document camera? Is the camera on the compatibility list? Turn off the cameras software and also the projector, then restart the browser and rescan. Do your answer sheets have enough questions on them? Your answer sheets must have at least the number of questions on them as the test key. That is, a 60-question answer sheet will work for a test with 45 questions on it, but a 45-question answer sheet will not scan on a 65-question test. I can scan but GradeCam freezes or crashes while scanning. Are you using an older version of the GradeCam plug-in? Sometimes older versions of the plugin can cause problems. Ensure you are up-to-date. Did the student mark inside the thick black box or student id area?
Assessment Scanning
Page 28
Writing inside the thick black box or student id area may cause issues. If you are using a document camera, have you tried running a test with a web cam? Web cams are often faster and do not require additional software. What browser are you using? Upgrade to a recommended browser. We prefer Firefox and Chrome. I can scan but am asked to verify a lot of responses. Is there glare on a particular section of the scanning area? Too much lighting or glare can overexpose sheets. Remove the glare and rescan. Do student marks appear nice and dark in your GradeCam preview window? Pencil marks can reflect light and cause problems scanning. Try turning off lights. I can scan, but results are inaccurate. Did you try turning off the lights? Too much lighting or glare can overexpose sheets. Turn off the lights and rescan. Pencil used? Pencil marks reflect light and may get misread by your camera. Turn off lights and rescan. Erasure marks? Improperly erased bubbles can sometimes be read as a bubbled response. Did you pencil in student IDs? It is best to print pre-slugged answer sheets. You can also darken the student ID with a marker. Lightly bubbled answer choices?
Assessment Scanning
Page 29
GradeCam may miss lightly bubbled responses. Try darkening them if youre having problems. Are your sheets blurry or not in focus in the Gradecam window? Slowly adjust your focus until the bubbles are crisp, then rescan sheets. Are you ignoring the prompt messages and just clicking OK? Make sure you check each prompt to ensure the answers are correct before clicking OK Did you scan to the correct assessment? Verify that you are scanning to the correct assessment. Im using a document camera. Not all document cameras work with GradeCam Review our Document camera compatibility list help document. Different doc cameras may require different solutions.

Is Lighting a Problem?
(1) Too much light or too little light can be a problem (e.g., it creates glare). Turn off half your lights or shield the scanning area from bright lights or move to a different area. (2) If a glare is causing problems (e.g., with laminated sheets), try holding something over the scanning area to block the glare. Bubbles should appear black, not silver or white. (3) Be sure your scanning area is free of shadows (i.e., don't let a shadow of the camera's neck or head fall across the page you are trying to scan).
Assessment Scanning
Page 35
Your camera must be in focus for the scan to occur. If your camera is not auto focus, adjust the focus to the sharpest image you can get.
Assessment Scanning
Page 36
Students may write in the area outside the black line. Nothing may be written inside the black line.
Answer sheets that have been printed on copiers can come out light in color if the toner is low. The camera needs to see a nice dark box in order to scan accurately.
Assessment Scanning
Page 37
Student names and IDs must appear at the top of the page. Either turn the sheet so it appears right side up on your screen or click Assessments, then GradeCam, and click Settings. Check mark Flip image.
Sometimes the hand written student ID interferes with GradeCam. If this is the case, cover the ID so the handwriting does not show.
Assessment Scanning
Page 38
If you are scanning an assessment that has multiple versions, be sure you printed answer documents for that assessment so that Forms show on the answer sheet. Also, be sure that one version number is bubbled for each answer sheet being scanned.
Next Steps
Try scanning again. Use the "Scan Student Responses with GradeCam" lesson if needed. If you are still unable to scan, please call Customer Support at 951-739-0186 for assistance.

Install GradeCam Plugin for Mac 10.8 Mountain Lion: Where to start
Assessment Scanning
Page 79
Apple introduced a new security feature called Gatekeeper with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion). This feature adds new options to the Security & Privacy preference pane found in System Preferences. You can read more about Gatekeeper on Apple's product information page. By default Gatekeeper allows you to install programs from the Mac App Store and those that have been signed by developers with an Apple-issued Developer ID. This protects the computer by keeping you from installing malicious programs from unknown developers, however, it also prevents you from installing programs from legitimate developers who have decided not to jump through the hoops to get a Developer ID from Apple. GradeCam does not have a Developer ID, nor do they plan on getting one. That means, if you have Gatekeeper set up to only allow you to download applications from the "Mac App Store and identified developers" or "Mac App Store" you may have trouble installing the plugin. Please see the steps below to temporarily or permanently override Gatekeeper to allow you to install the GradeCam plugin.
Assessment Scanning
Page 80
If you have GateKeeper configured to only allow installation from the "Mac App Store and identified developers" the operating system will prompt you with a message like the one above when you try to install the GradeCam plugin. 1. Click on the "OK" button to dismiss the warning. The plugin will not be installed.

Page 81
2. Right-click (or hold the control button on your keyboard while clicking the mouse) on the "Install the GradeCam Plugin.app" icon to bring up a contextual menu. 3. Choose "Open" from the contextual menu. This will pop up a modified version of the previous warning with two options instead of one. 4. Click on the "Open" button to install the GradeCam plugin. Using this option, the next time you try to install an unsigned program, Gatekeeper will prevent you from completing the installation. If you want to permanently change your settings, read on!
Permanently overriding Gatekeeper to install the GradeCam plugin (and all other unsigned software)

To permanently change Gatekeeper's settings, follow these steps: 1. Open the System Preferences program by clicking on the Apple Menu and selecting "System Preferences". 2. Click on the Security & Privacy preference pane. 3. Click on the lock at the bottom of the window and enter your password to enable changes to these preferences 4. In the "Allow applications downloaded from:" section, select "Anywhere." 5. The system will prompt you that "Choosing 'Anywhere' makes your Mac less secure." Click "Allow From Anywhere" to make the change. You will now be able to install unsigned programs.

Install GradeCam Plugin and Software to Scan with ELMO or AVerMedia Cameras
This lesson only pertains to those attempting to scan assessments with an ELMO document camera. A GradeCam plug-in allows users to scan with increased speed and accuracy. However, ELMO/AVerMedia only works with GradeCam under some conditions. This lesson will walk you through options for scanning with ELMO or AVerMedia. Illuminate has tested some ELMO camera models, but not all. You need to test your particular ELMO to ensure it will work with GradeCam. Note: Some districts "lock down" computers so that teachers cannot install software on their computer or anything that is installed during the day is wiped away at night. If this is the case in your district, contact your I.T. dept. to help with the software installation.
Assessment Scanning
Page 84
First, install the ELMO software. Visit http://www.elmousa.com/support/ scroll to the Cameras or Discontinued Products sections of the webpage, select your camera model and view the support page to download the PC Software specific to the ELMO document camera you will use to scan (as shown above).
Are you using a Mac or a PC? - Macs do not work with ELMO for scanning purposes. GradeCam (the scanning software Illuminate uses) is waiting for ELMO to share the technology that will make this possible. If you are using a Mac, stop reading now (sorry, but the rest of this lesson will not work for you). - Certain ELMOs do work with PC for scanning purposes. SMART cameras do not yet work with GradeCam. If you are using a non-SMART ELMO, continue reading.
Next, install the GradeCam plugin. If you are unsure how to do this, go to the " Install GradeCam Plugin for PC" lesson.
Last, install the Elmo Support file. Click here to access this file.

Introduction
There are three ways to install the PC GradeCam plugin: 1. Installation on a per-user basis (standard method) 2. Installation on a per-computer basis 3. Remote installation on a per-computer basis using Group Policy, etc. There are two ways to install the Mac GradeCam plugin: Installation on a per-user basis (using the standard installer)
Assessment Scanning
Page 88
If your district uses an imaging program like Deep Freeze, which restores the computer to a clean state after each reboot, the per-user installation can be frustrating for users who must reinstall the plugin after each reboot as well. In this case as well as the shared computer case it would be better to use an installation method other than the per-user installation to prevent confusion or frustration. To download the per-user installation, you can click on the "Install the GradeCam Plugin" link from the scanning window on a computer that doesn't have GradeCam installed, or you can go to the Illuminate downloads page and download the per-user installer.

1. Working left-to-right, select from the options provided which Site, Session, Department, User, Course and Section you would like to use for your pre-slugged answer sheets. Note you might not have all of the input controls shown above, in which case this step is simply made easier for you (e.g., if you are a teacher at a single school site, the system won't bother asking you which site you want to select and which teacher, as it already knows your information). Until you've picked a section. 2. Leave All Students selected to print for your entire course, but note you may select one particular student if needed (e.g., a new student who just joined your class, or a student who has lost his printed answer sheet). 3. Note you have the option of changing enrollment period (which populates your section/student options) if you want to. 4. Enter the number of questions you would like to have for this answer sheet. 5.

Find the GradeCam section of your screen. For assessments with multiple versions, you must print answer sheets from this location (as opposed to the GradeCam tab elsewhere in the system) to print answer documents that will display the form numbers you need. You may opt to print blank answer sheets (i.e., with no student names) and/or preslugged (pre-ID with one student's name and GradeCam ID per sheet) answer sheets. Simply click on the link that applies to your needs.
If you clicked the "Blank" link you will go straight to an image of your blank answer sheet. Proceed to the "Print" section below.
Assessment Scanning
Page 98
If you clicked the "Pre-Slugged" link you will need to tell the system which group of student names it should use. Note that not all users will have all dropdown options, as users with less access need to define less criteria. 1. Select from the options provided which Site, Session, Department, User, Course and Section you would like to use for your pre-slugged answer sheets. 2. Click on the Print button to generate your answer sheet. A window should open that shows you a sample of what your answer sheets will look like (if you only see 5 students, don't worry; this is just a sample, and continuing will allow you to print for all your students). If no window opens, you are probably using a pop-up blocker on your system. Simply turn it off (for example, in Internet Explorer you would click Tools, select Pop-up Blocker, and select Turn Off Pop-up Blocker (then you can proceed as planned). See the "Having Trouble Printing Answer Sheets for GradeCam" lesson for more details.

Under the GradeCam section, you have a varied options: 1. Click Print Multiple Answer Sheets per Page (10 Questions) if you want to squeeze multiple 10-question answer sheets on a single page (to cut up). 2. Click Print Multiple Answer Sheets per Page (25 Questions) if you want to squeeze multiple 25-question answer sheets on a single page (to cut up). 3. Click Print Multiple Answer Sheets per Page (50 Questions) if you want to squeeze multiple 50-question answer sheets on a single page (to cut up).
Next Steps
If you want to print pre-slugged answer sheets (meaning that they already feature each student's GradeCam ID number and name) with multiple answer sheets on the same page, or if you want to print blank answer sheets with a different number of questions or ID number columns with multiple answer sheets on the same page, see the "Print Multiple Answer Sheets per Page that You Customize Yourself (Advanced)" lesson for guidance.

Print Multiple Answer Sheets per Page that You Customize Yourself (Advanced)
If you want to print blank answer sheets (meaning any students can use them by simply bubbling in their ID numbers and writing their names above the boxes, or you can choose do this for them before class starts) so that multiple answer documents print on one page (meaning that you can print a sheet of 6, for example, cut it into sixths, and have students use these for scanning in order to save paper), Illuminate has prepared some for you based on popular test sizes. Simply click on the link below that contains a test size to accommodate your test(s). Keep in mind that you can use an answer sheet with extra spaces for a shorter test (for example, you could print answer sheets for 25 question tests and use them for tests with only 15 questions - Illuminate DnA will simply ignore any extra question numbers when you scan, based on the number of questions on your answer key). 10-Question Assessment (available for GradeCam ID numbers with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 9 digits): https://www.illuminateed.com/10QuestionAnswerSheets.pdf 25-Question Assessment (available for GradeCam ID numbers with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 9 digits): https://www.illuminateed.com/25QuestionAnswerSheets.pdf 50-Question Assessment (only available for GradeCam ID numbers with 3, 4, 5, or 6 digits, as more digits will not allow two sheets to fit on one page): https://www.illuminateed.com/50QuestionAnswerSheets.pdf Continue reading if you want to print pre-slugged answer sheets (meaning that they already feature each student's GradeCam ID number and name) with multiple answer sheets on the same page, or if you want to print blank answer sheets with a different number of questions or ID number columns with multiple answer sheets on the same page, as you can create your own with a little cut and paste. You can even add other images and/or text to the sheets, as long as you do not get these inside the scanning boxes. See the "Cool Things to Do with Answer Sheets" lesson for numerous ideas.

Where to Start
1. Click on the Assessments tab in the navigation bar. 2. Under Gradecam, click on Print Answer Sheets (Blank) or Print Answer Sheets (Pre-Slugged), depending on the types of sheets you want to create. Keep in mind that the latter will require more time to accommodate all students.
Assessment Scanning
Page 105
Keep in mind that you can use an answer sheet with extra spaces for a shorter test (for example, you could print answer sheets for 30 question tests and use them for tests with only 28 questions - Illuminate will simply ignore any extra question numbers when you scan, based on the number of questions on your answer key). Because the steps you are doing now can take approximately 10-15 minutes per page, you might want to create documents that you can use for many tests to save you time in the future. 1. Enter the Number of Questions you would like to appear on each student's answer sheet. You might want to look at the samples (via links at the top of this lesson) for an indication of how many sheets will fit on one page. Keep in mind that this number will rely on how many digits your GradeCam ID numbers contain (e.g., districts with 9 digits cannot fit as many answer sheets on a page as districts opting to use 4 digit GradeCam ID numbers). Optional- Add Student Name Line/Additional Notes. 2. Click Print to generate an answer sheet image.
Assessment Scanning
Page 106
You now have two options: traditional (hard copy) cut and paste, or making the sheets on your computer. If you plan to use scissors and tape or glue to create your sheets (that can then be photocopied to use again and again), simply: 1. Click Print. Print as many copies as you need. 2. Cut out the boxes (making sure that you do not cut into the boxes' black outlines). 3. Arrange and affix the boxes on another sheet of paper, and you are done. You may even add other images and/or words to the sheets, as long as you do not get these inside the scanning boxes. See the "Cool Things to Do with Answer Sheets" lesson for numerous ideas. If you plan to keep using your computer to create your sheets (that can then be saved and printed to use again and again), keep reading.

If you plan to keep using your computer to create your sheets (that can then be printed to use again and again), simply follow the remaining steps: 1. Now that you see one answer sheet on your screen, be sure that the image is clear (like the above image). If it is not, try increasing the size of your screen. For example, on a PC you can press the "Ctrl" button and the "+" (plus) button simultaneously on your keyboard to increase the screen size (just hit Ctrl and "-" when you want to shrink it again). On a Mac you can do the same thing, only use the Command key rather than a Ctrl key. 2. Be sure the box's entire black outline is visible on your screen. Scroll up and down (or resize your screen) if necessary so that it fits. 3. Next, capture a screen shot of the image. On a PC keyboard, simply press Ctrl and Shift and Prnt Scrn (usually in the upper-right corner of your keyboard) simultaneously. On a Mac keyboard, simply press Command and Shift and 3 simultaneously (this will add a screen shot file to your computer Desktop); or press Command and Shift and 4 simultaneously on a Mac keyboard, then hold the left click on your mouse down and drag to select the area you want (this will also add a screen shot file to your computer Desktop, but only of the area you selected). Do not print to PDF and do not try to then capture a screen shot from the PDF. Remember: if your entire answer sheet is not showing on your screen, simply press change your screen size: on a PC you can press the "Ctrl" button and the "+" (plus)

button simultaneously on your keyboard to increase the screen size (just hit Ctrl and "-" when you want to shrink it again), and on a Mac you can do the same thing, only use the Command key rather than a Ctrl key.
1. Open up Microsoft Word (or use another program you know will allow you to manipulate images). I will use Word 2007 for the remaining instructions, so please note that the version of Word you use could slightly alter the look of your screen (and thus the location and navigation for "clicking" and more). 2. Click the round Office button (very upper-left corner of your screen) and select New to create a new answer document (or press Ctrl and N simultaneously on a PC keyboard as a shortcut, or do the same thing on a Mac but use the Command key rather than a Ctrl key). 3. Click on the image of your new document (anywhere inside the page). Nothing will happen; this merely sets you up for the next step. 4. If you are using a PC, click Paste from your Home tab and then select Paste (or press Ctrl and V simultaneously on your PC keyboard as a shortcut) to paste the answer document image that you copied earlier. If you are using a Mac, either drag the image file (that you saved to your Desktop earlier) onto the page, or click Insert from your Home tab (circled in the image above in purple) and then navigate to find the Desktop file and consent to insert it into your document.

1. Click Crop. 2. Hover over one of the short black lines that now surrounds your image, click to "grab" one line at a time and (while still holding down your left mouse click) move the lines inward to crop off parts of the screen shot you don't want. Be sure that you don't remove any portion of the box's black outline. Repeat this with all sides of the image as necessary. 3. Click Text Wrapping and select In Front of Text. Notice that you are now able to move your image around the page. 4. Click the Size menu, find the Scale area of the window that appears, and change the height to 100% (this should cause the width to change to 100% as well, because Lock aspect ratio should remain checked), then click OK. This will cause your image to resize to the same size as it would ordinarily print. 5. Now click on your answer document that you want to copy (to repeat elsewhere on the page). From your Home tab, click Copy (or press Ctrl and C simultaneously on your PC keyboard as a shortcut, or do the same thing on a Mac but use the Command key rather than a Ctrl key). 6. Now click anywhere on your page; from your Home tab, click Paste and then select Paste (or press Ctrl and V simultaneously on your PC keyboard as a shortcut, or do the same thing on a Mac but use the Command key rather than a Ctrl key) to paste the answer document image that you copied earlier.
Assessment Scanning
Page 110
7. Continue to paste as many answer document images as you need and drag them to place them anywhere on the page. You can fit as many answer sheets as you want (as long as they don't overlap and aren't resized above or below 100% in scale). 8. When you are finished, click the round Office button (very upper-left corner of your screen) and select Save to save your document for future use (or press Ctrl and S simultaneously on a PC keyboard as a shortcut, or do the same thing on a Mac but use the Command key rather than a Ctrl key).
Next Steps
IMPORTANT: Test scan what you create before using it with students and/or before creating others to be sure the size (and other aspects) is appropriate.
