I record a start row, then scan each runner in when they cross the finish line and I have an instant time tally sheet. We use Scan to Spreadsheet to log when students turn in homework assignments. Now we can quickly see who has not turned in and head off any problems that could affect their grades. Our asset inventory is so easy now that we use Scan to Spreadsheet. Great Job!!!
