VANScan®

VANScan®, a component of the powerful Learning Access®: Vantage Learning Platform, provides instant access to test results for paper-and-pencil assessments and supports the migration of student performance data over time as districts continue to develop the necessary technology infrastructure within their schools.

Using VANScan, assessment scoring and reporting are simultaneous, conducted quickly to provide teachers the data to drive individualized intervention that leads to continuous school improvement.  This in turn helps educators meet strict federal guidelines.  VANScan facilitates delivery of timely data, so critical for school districts and administrators, to support student achievement.

VANScan, powered by TURBOSCORE®, was developed for test administrators who want to leverage the power of the web but lack the requisite technology infrastructure.  Once downloaded to a computer, VANScan allows educators to harness the power of Vantage Learning’s Internet-based products.  Test forms are printed onsite.  Students record their answers on bubble-sheets.  Answer sheets are scanned locally or at Vantage headquarters and uploaded to our online test server.  Results are immediately analyzed and performance reports are instantly available for viewing online and printing.
