About Akindi at IU

On this page:


Overview

Akindi is an exam-scoring platform that is integrated with Canvas, allowing instructors to process student bubble-sheet exam forms without needing to use high-capacity scanners (for example, Scantron machines).

Prior to the exam, and using standard printers, instructors can print exam forms that are prepopulated with student identification information. Completed exam forms can then be scanned into a PDF document using regular scanners, and uploaded into the platform for grading and reporting of results to Canvas. Instructors maintain control over the exam-scoring process, which can lead to faster access to exam analytics, quick adjustment of exam keys, and planned release of grades through Canvas.

Akindi is available in all courses on the Indiana University Bloomington and IUPUI campuses. Instructors can add Akindi directly through Canvas apps.
