They can be used for so many different things as I will show you below. They can be embedded into blogs, wikis and websites or can just be stand-a-lones on the web.  Each form creates its own spreadsheet that captures and collects the responses quickly and easily.  </span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjau-xbZLpHc01zN8Wn-iLrvdlpeQuKhWpvp1IYTfnA-RZDocC4MOqDcWBjaKpXmJEOM_XP-vVow3NIKIWXxnnLZPU4cLquJBhfwEQMptWTA_JCXhay84BrwpOIvfjJAl0K-vMPFj5MUp8/s1600/googleforms2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="218" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjau-xbZLpHc01zN8Wn-iLrvdlpeQuKhWpvp1IYTfnA-RZDocC4MOqDcWBjaKpXmJEOM_XP-vVow3NIKIWXxnnLZPU4cLquJBhfwEQMptWTA_JCXhay84BrwpOIvfjJAl0K-vMPFj5MUp8/s320/googleforms2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Here are some of the uses I have discovered: </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">•You can use them for general surveys </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">•You can get quick input from others on various topics </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">•Use a Google form for various kinds of evaluation such as creating and posting short quizzes online.  </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">•Create a survey before and after a lesson/discussion </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">•Use it to collect data </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">•The students can fill in answers to questions in a test </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">•You can get feedback after a lesson </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">•It makes a great book review form </span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Thus, a Google form is a great tool in the hands of an educator.  If you would like to make one, here are two presentations that could help. The first one looks at the seven different kinds of questions you can ask using a Google form. The second one shows you how to go about making a Google form. I hope you’ll find them helpful. </span></div><div id="__ss_13462782" style="width: 425px;"><b style="display: block; margin: 12px 0px 4px;"><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/fionabeal/the-seven-question-types-to-use-on-a-google-form" title="The seven question types to use on a Google form">The seven question types to use on a Google form</a></b><object height="355" id="__sse13462782" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=whatcanyoudowithagoogleform-120626164425-phpapp02&stripped_title=the-seven-question-types-to-use-on-a-google-form&userName=fionabeal" /> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <embed name="__sse13462782" src="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=whatcanyoudowithagoogleform-120626164425-phpapp02&stripped_title=the-seven-question-types-to-use-on-a-google-form&userName=fionabeal" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> <br /><div style="padding-bottom: 12px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 5px;">View more <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/">presentations</a> from <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/fionabeal">Fiona Beal</a>.</div></div><div id="__ss_11738513" style="width: 425px;"><b style="display: block; margin: 12px 0px 4px;"><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/fionabeal/google-forms-so-easy-to-use" target="_blank" title="Google forms - so easy to use">Google forms - so easy to use</a></b> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="355" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://www.slideshare.net/slideshow/embed_code/11738513" style="border-bottom: #ccc 0px solid; border-left: #ccc 1px solid; border-right: #ccc 1px solid; border-top: #ccc 1px solid;" width="425"></iframe> <br /><div style="padding-bottom: 12px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 5px;">View more <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/thecroaker/death-by-powerpoint" target="_blank">PowerPoint</a> from <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/fionabeal" target="_blank">Fiona Beal</a> </div></div></div>
