Resumo

There are currently several commercial automatic graders for multiple-choice test sheets, usually composed by a software and scanner bundle, resulting in high cost solutions. The popularity of devices such as laptops, tablets and smartphones with integrated cameras offer new possibilities to perform the same task at low costs. This paper presents an application for Android named “MCTest – Multiple Choice Test”, developed using the OpenCV library. The app was used for correcting hundreds of multiple-choice test sheets in real conditions and showed excellent results, precisely grading tests instantly and also providing
statistical tools to analyze the results.
