Google Forms for Education

Figuring out what individual students are thinking can be done on paper or by a survey of hands or with technology like Google Forms which can be used in real time or as homework asynchronously. Here is a short quiz on breakeven analysis ( http://bit.ly/Math102Breakeven) that students did during the class in real time on the web browser on their phones.  Google Forms can collect information in various formats including multiple choice, checkboxes, dropdown, short answer or paragraph formats.   Photos can be uploaded to add visuals and  www.bitly.com will shorten and rename links.                                                   Alice Keeler on Google Forms
