Remark Office OMR, developed by Gravic, allows instructors to create and grade paper-based multiple-choice assessments using optical mark recognition (OMR) technology. Instructors can create answer sheets using a word processor and printer, then scan completed sheets using a scanner or multifunction printer. The software grades responses, generates reports, and exports results in various formats.
Remark does not require specially pre-printed forms, dedicated scanning hardware, or No. 2 pencils.
