Google Forms were originally developed to survey or gather information from respondents. But with this easy to use tool you can quiz your students, flip your classroom, or create a discussion tool.

Flip Your Classroom
If you’ve recently made the switch to a flipped classroom, Google Forms can make your life a bit easier. To ensure that your students are watching your videos as homework, add a short Form with a few questions as a check for understanding.
Just as you can insert questions, time, date, etc… you can also insert videos into a Google Form. Watch this video to see how:
- First, create your form with questions.
- To add your form to your Google Site, go to the page where you want it to appear.
- Click the Edit button.
- Click Insert>Drive>Form
- Choose your form and click Select
- Edit your preferences and Save.
- Save your page.
Then, to allow everyone to see the responses of others, you can embed your Google Response Sheet on your Google Site.
- From your Google Site, click the Edit tool to edit your page.
- Click Insert>Drive>Spreadsheet
- Choose the Responses sheet for your Google Form.
- Click Select
- Edit your preferences and Save
- Save your page.
As each new respondent submits, their answers will show up in the posted sheet so everyone can see and discuss. This is a great way to create an archive of answers that future learners can benefit from.
