Project Intro
For our next project we are going to be going back to Google Docs to learn to make something new - Google Forms. Google Forms is a fun way to make a survey that your friends can take online. We have already taken Google Forms surveys in some of our lessons. Now we will be making some of our own. We will post our surveys online for our friends to take, and we will use Google Docs to look at the results.
Teaching Point:
Today we will learn how to make a Google Form.
What is a Google Form?
A Google Form is a survey that is posted online. We use Google Docs to make the form. There are different types of questions that we can put into our survey - questions with typed-in answers, questions where users choose from a list, mulitple choice questions, and more. To make a Google Form:
- In Google Docs click CREATE-FORM.
- Type your question in QUESTION TITLE
- Choose what kind of question you want it to be - Multiple Choice, List, Type, etc. in QUESTION TYPE
- If you want to add another question, click ADD ITEM.
