Introduction
This page explains how to log in to and use Akindi, the new Scantron alternative at Biola University.
Before You Begin
Before you can create bubble sheets in Akindi, you need to create an Akindi account. You must log in to Akindi through Canvas to create your account. This will also send your class roster information into Akindi.
| Step | What to Do | How It Looks |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Log in to canvas.biola.edu. | |
| 2 | Open the course you want to use with Akindi. | |
| 3 | Select Launch Akindi from the left sidebar. |  |
| 4 | Click the big Launch Akindi button. Clicking this button will sync the class roster for the selected course into Akindi.
Important! If you want to use Akindi with multiple courses, make sure you "Launch Akindi" from each course in Canvas. |
How to Upload Akindi Bubble Sheets with a Bizhub Copier
| Step | What to Do | How It Looks |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Log in to the Bizhub with your ID card or NetID.
| |
| 2 | Place the bubble sheets into the Bizhub document feeder. Tip For large classes, limit the scan to less than 50 sheets at a time. This will help avoid scanning errors. | |
| 3 | Select the Scan to Email option. Note: On some Bizhubs this option might be called Fax/Scan. |  |
| 4 | Press Direct Input, and select Email. |  |
| 5 | Enter your Akindi email address, and press OK.
Tip You can also add your Akindi email to the Bizhub Address Book, so that you do not need to type it every time. Your department admin or an IT Helpdesk Tech can help add your Akindi email to your Bizhub address book. |  |
| 6 | Press Start. Your results should appear in your Akindi dashboard in a matter of moments. You may also receive an email notification once the bubble sheets are processed. |
