Features of Google Forms
Insert video/image
You can now insert images and YouTube videos directly into your survey questions. This is great if you want to have students watch a video and check for understanding or to make a quick demo of a tool you want input on. On the right hand side, select either the “image” button or the “YouTube icon” to add your content into the your Google Form.
Multiple Choice Grids
A new question type has been added, “Multiple Choice Grids.” This allows users to rank a series of questions. For example, if you want to rank a series of new technology features, you can set up a Multiple Choice Grid with the features in rows and rankings in columns. Even better, survey takers cannot select the same column twice.
Publish with pre-filled responses
A new feature for Google Forms is that you can publish a version of your form with pre-filled responses. This is a great tool if you need to do a “run-off” of one part of your Google Form. To do this, select the three dot menu in the top right and then click on “Get pre-filled link.” A new window will open where you select the answers you want to pre-filled. Pre-fill your select answers and click “submit.” Google will then post a new link for you to share out with your pre-filled form.
Browse through the available add-ons to include in your form. One of my favorites is “Form Limiter” that will close a form once a maximum number of responses have been accepted. Another is “Choice Eliminator.” I use this tool when I want to allow students to select on topic from a list with no duplicate topics. Math and Science teachers, check out g(Math) Forms; using this tool you can insert complex equations into your forms.
3 Interesting ways to use Google Forms in study
Evaluating an Educational Visit
Google forms lend students to gathering data on the popularity and effectiveness of school trips. The data is easily collected and shared with other people.
Choose Your Own Learning Expedition
Combine mobile devices, QR codes, Sites, and Google Forms to have students complete learning expeditions. Student teams locate QR codes using directions. They then access content/videos and integrate that into a response submitted in Forms. The Form response will provide the clue to their next destination. Better yet--have student teams build their own Learning Expedition.
Placing orders
Use Google Forms for members to order the club t-shirts online. In the form, questions like 't-shirt size', 'prefered mode of payment' and 'clubrep for tshirt pick-up' were in list form, while things like (nick)name, contact info and 'comments or requests' are open fields.
