Google Form

Description

forms are among the internet's most versatile tools. Whether you need a contact form or a checkout page, a survey or a student directory, a form is all you need to easily gather that information. With Google Forms, it only takes a few minutes to make one for free.

Google Forms—along with Docs, Sheets, and Slides—is part of Google's online apps suite of tools to help you get more done in your browser for free. It's easy to use and one of the simplest ways to save data directly to a spreadsheet, and it's the best sidekick to Google Sheets' spreadsheets.

When you need to gather data for your spreadsheets, a form is your best friend. In this chapter, let's take an in-depth look at Google Forms' features, hidden tools, and add-ons to help you make the forms you need in minutes.

Uses

●       Create Surveys to Meet Curriculum Objectives It is likely that your students are required to make surveys. Take a look at your math curriculum. Learning objectives typically include research design, data collection, data analysis, and reporting outcomes (often these appear in the data management, statistic, and/or probability section). Now take a look at your science curriculum. Scientific inquiry should be listed as a learning objective, which includes asking questions, collecting data, organizing findings, analyzing and interpreting data, and communicating results.

The great news is that Google Forms can help your students meet curriculum requirements! Your students will be able to pose a meaningful research question, select a sample group from the population using an appropriate sampling technique, design a questionnaire without question bias, administer the survey, analyze the data using graphs, data tables, and pivot charts, and draw conclusions from the data. Google Forms is a useful tool for meeting objectives.

●       Ask Various Types of Questions google Forms allows you to ask both open-ended and closed-ended questions. You can use drop down menus, multiple choice, checklists, rating scales, and short answers text boxes to gather data. Below are the types of questions you can use in a Google Form:

o   Text

o   Paragraph Text

o   Multiple Choice

o   Checkboxes

o   Choose from a list

o   Scale

o   Grid

o   Date

o   Time

●       Apply Validation Options to Control Data Entry Data validation is a rule applied to data entry to make sure that the information is correct and/or useful. Google Forms offers many options for controlling answers provided by respondents. Questions can be set to required to prevent respondents from skipping a question. A number or text can be restricted to a specific entry, character count, or range. A checklist can have the number of options selected limited. As well, the order of choices for a question can be shuffled to avoid placement within a list influencing selection. Validation options provided by Google Forms help to improve the quality of the data recorded.

●       Create Professional Looking Forms using Themes Google Forms helps you create a professional looking form. Themes are available allowing you and your students to select from over twenty pre-set designs. In addition, a custom option promotes creativity. The header, text, form background, and page background can all be customized. It is fun to explore the library of header images (some are animated!). One feature I like is the ability to set the page background. You can upload a picture, take a snapshot, or load an image from a URL or Google Drive to create a custom look. With so many web apps limiting the creative process, it is refreshing that form appearance is not restricted to only a few templates in Google Forms.

●       Multiple Ways to Administer Forms Google Forms lets you and your students collect data using multiple methods. A form can be included in the body of an email allowing a respondent to submit their responses from their Inbox. A link can be generated allowing respondents to answer the questions using a web-based form. Code can be generated and then embedded into a blog or web page as another option for data collection. As well, if a paper/pencil method is preferred the form can be converted into a PDF file using Google Chrome.

 info graph

"canva"

Description:

Information graphics or info graphics are graphic visual representations of information, data or knowledge intended to present complex information quickly and clearly. They can improve cognition by utilizing graphics to enhance the human visual system’s ability to see patterns and trends.

What we like about the Wikipedia definition is that it makes one thing very clear: Info graphics are meant to present complex data in an easy-to-understand manner. This data presentation is what defines an info graphic and sets it apart from another graphic or type of visualization

Price:

Canva – Allows you to create graphics of any size, and has a built in free “infographics” art section designed specifically for this use.

Uses :

• create your own infographic.
•  allow you to generate an infographic very quickly, without the need for a professional designer, and often in very high quality formats
•  allows you to work with freelance designers to create custom infographics.
• You can post a description of your project and hire a freelancer with the skills and expertise to tackle the job.
• It seems like we tend to learn faster, and perhaps absorb more, when information is presented to us in a visual format as opposed to written text.
• they’re designed to be absorbed quickly and have a longer-lasting effect than regular articles.
