### 1/5 — Who OK’d This???

*2020-03-10*

Half the time it won’t work.....Who was the person who said “Yup, this is good enough to roll out!” Seriously

### 5/5 — 🥱

*2019-11-14*

Mrs.Dunham is the best teacher in the whole world

### 3/5 — Student grades don’t always pop up

*2019-09-20*

I love using this in class for providing immediate feedback, but the student scores don’t automatically pop up on my screen most of the time. I have to login to mastery manager to find their scores.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2019-09-11*

I scanned three class periods and SEVERAL students in each period had answers scanned incorrectly.  Complete mess.

### 3/5 — Functional, but needs work!

*2019-08-31*

This apps most basic functioning seems sound. Every time I have tried to scan something it works quickly and well. It is a desperately needed tool to help me quickly scan the occasional test in particular situations where I only have one or two: a kid made up a test after being sick, a kid didn’t have their chrome book when we took an online test and I had to give them a paper scan, etc

These are the most important fixes needed to make the app work better:

1. Remember my login!
         The quick convenience of the app is significantly limited by the fact that I have to login every single time I open the app.

2. Give a clearer, more pronounced confirmation that the form was successfully scanned and sent. As it works now, it gives only a very tiny number that indicates this, and the ability to go check the history only works intermittently. I just want to know when I’m done scanning my one or two tests that I can file away the forms and those student’s grade will be in Mastery Manager with all the rest when I go to retrieve them. 

As it is now, the app seems more targeted at scanning a whole class of scans, but when I’m doing that I will use a computer. This seems more ideal for scanning the occasional straggler, but the design isn’t well suited for that.

### 3/5 — Good but not great

*2019-08-22*

I’ve used this for about a day now, but I attempted to scan over 100 forms in that day. It worked most of the time. It’s pretty particular so you have to make sure it can read all the black boxes on the sides of the page and it cannot see any of the boxes from any other pages. I have one form that refused to scan and I can’t figure out why. There’s no way to report that thru the app. I also wish there was more I could do on the app and the ability to save my username and password so I don’t have to retype my email every time.
