ODL is excited to announce a partnership with Akindi, a web-based test-scoring tool that serves as an alternative to traditional systems like Scantron. Akindi allows instructors to create, administer, and grade both paper-based and online multiple-choice assessments

Akindi Key Features

• Integration with Canvas: Instructors can now have Akindi activated in their course via the course navigation menu.
• Flexible Scanning Options: Instructors can use regular 8.5" x 11" printer paper and any scanner to manage assessments. Smartphones can also be used, but this is not our recommendation.
• Enhanced Data Security: Akindi complies with FERPA and MFIPPA regulations, ensuring secure handling of student data.
• Support and Training: Akindi offers unlimited personalized training sessions, chat and email support, group webinars, and a robust help center.

1. Go to Course Settings.
2. Select Navigation.
3. Scroll down to the available options.
4. Find Akindi.
