Google Forms: An Assessment Tool

Filed Under (Resources) by Laura Smith on 17-09-2009 and tagged , , , ,

I teach in a computer lab and can have up to eight classes some days.  If I want to assess my students with a test or quiz, using paper just wouldn’t work.  Using Google Docs form/spreadsheet combo works great for this.  Simply create the test by making a form, select a theme, save it, and create a link for the students.  Once they submit their completed forms, Google Docs creates a spreadsheet of their answers.  Once printed, I can go through and mark incorrect answers, and I’ve got some tangible evidence of data thanks to the option to view graph summaries.

This is an example test of mine on digital citizenship.
