"For our STEM courses, the instructors value being able to use variables to generate unique question values for each student and unique homework sets. Over time, our instructors have built up a large question bank which they can easily reuse or share with other instructors."

“Ans was designed to scan in paper based exams, grade them online in an anonymous way and share your feedback more efficiently. It does that so much better than any other tool I have seen.”

"Ans has very useful dashboards for seeing the statistics on how well students did on questions and gives me learning analytics about it. It provides me information in terms of, do I have TA’s that are being more tough on grading than others, to help identify the issues and the grading process. So for me, especially for very large classes where I cannot grade all of the assignments myself and I have to rely on a team of graders, it provides an excellent platform for managing that team, grading effort and ensuring the most fairness and transparency in the grading process."

"Since introducing Ans, students have reported scarcely any difficulties, demonstrating the platform's user-friendly design. Specific functionalities within Ans, such as accessibility features, an overview of the questions, a chat feature with instructor, facilitate a more accessible and structured learning experience. Ultimately, making the learning process easier and encouraging students' self-regulation skills."

"I would say we have used it extensively now and wouldn't go back to the old way of doing things. Once you have had the minimal training required to familiarise yourself with the platform, it's quick and easy to create an exam or test, create a mark scheme, open it up for students to complete (or print it if handwritten), and then mark it."

"It’s a very intuitive and efficient way to organise your exams. It can save you a lot of time in corrections and archiving. I would surely recommend it!"

"Time to onboard is very fast. The more you use Ans in a consistent way, the more questions you will gather in the question bank. You can use the questions from these question banks to use later on in other tests, so that the actual time to create new tests decreases. Also, colleagues can use each other’s questions via this question bank. In addition to this, the questions in the question bank can be reviewed and checked by a colleague in advance of the exam preparation, leading to an increased quality level overall."
