Abstract

A method for increasing the speed at which test answers are processed. The method receives electronic representations of test answers and organizes the test answers into separate groupings. The method next displays a particular grouping of test answers to a test resolver so that the resolver can score the test answers. In displaying the answers, the method uses a matrix of cells and displays one test answer in each of the cells. The test resolver can thus simultaneously view multiple test answers, which facilitates efficient scoring of the answers.
