Using Google Forms

I have written a previous post about GoogleDrive and why this tool is (I believe) the way to go for general uses of word processing, spreadsheets and presentations.

This post is about using a tool with GoogleDrive called Forms. Forms are a great way to produce quizzes (multiple choice or free answer) that are simple to send to students via email. Each form will automatically collect your students responses and (with a little bit of work) will mark them also. It is similar to Socrative but you don't need to run the quiz live, students can do the quiz when they want.

The videos below are worth checking out...

Part 1 - Creating a form



Part 2 - Getting the students answers marked automatically (very cool!)


If you DON'T have a Google account yet, here is a tutorial for doing that. Note - it would be best to use a different email from your school email right now...
