I think Google Forms are one of the most versatile and powerful tools in the Google Suite. Once you get the hang of google forms and how powerful they can be, I can honestly say they almost become addicting.
I can honestly say I use Google forms for almost everything in my class. I use it to get to know my students at the start of the year, I use it to get student feedback after a unit. I use it for quizzes and tests. I use it to collect lab data from lab groups during the day. I use it for students to sign up for topics or groups. I create short assignments where students watch a video and then respond to a series of questions. I am quickly able to sort through 160 students and read their responses so much faster than opening 160 google docs or any other program. In addition to using Google Forms with students, they can be very powerful for teachers to use for their own needs. When I was the technology coach at my school last year, I had to log all of my hours and the needs of the teachers. I created a google form that I had on my phone and easily accessible on my computer where I could quickly log in the date, time and activity that I worked on with the teacher. This then created a spreadsheet that was shared with my principal who could see who I was supporting. Our school also uses Google Forms for attendance corrections and disciplinary actions. It truly is such a versatile tool. I am hoping to give AutoCrat a try since I have never used it before. I am pondering creating some type of digital badge that could be emailed to students when they finish a digital citizenship lesson. I would love to hear how teachers have used AutoCrat or some helpful tips for getting started because it seems a bit intimidating.
