You may get responses from individuals in a terrific way with a Google Form. A Google Form eliminates the need to read and count responses on sheets of paper for every form, from a short one-question survey to a lengthy quiz with multiple sections. Additionally, using a form is a classy substitute for sending an email with a list of people's questions.
To meet a variety of data gathering requirements, Google Forms may include all the common survey types, including text, multiple choice questions, dropdowns, linear scales, and grids. They can be used to replace a simple customer intake form, gather contact information on a website, gather inventory data, collect votes, gather feedback, assess a product or service.
1. Create your questions
- Make your queries first: You may probably write your queries directly in a Google Form for a brief form, such a web contact form that requests an email address, name, and message. However, I like to first prepare my questions in a Google Doc for longer surveys or quizzes.
- This, I've found, helps me concentrate on how each question is phrased.
- Ask just those inquiries that you genuinely need an answer to. Based on the responses, what course of action will you take? Do you really need to know each respondent's phone number, email address, and mailing address?
- Can questions be omitted? You can omit fields that you might have included on a paper form to record the date and/or time that a form was completed by using Google Sheets, for example, where the first column shows the date and time that each response was submitted.
2. Create your form
- Next, open a desktop browser and navigate to https://forms.google.com. Click the "Create new form" button in the lower right corner. Enter your questions after giving your form a title and a description. Use the + to the right of your form to add more questions. As well as adding text, pictures, videos, or section breaks. By selecting a different option from the dropdown box in the top right of each question section, you can change the question type.
- Choose the sprocket in the top right (to the left of the Send button), choose the "Quizzes" tab, and then slide the slider to "Make this a quiz." to make your form into a quiz. Review the options for grade release, and change what respondents can see. Save your settings after that.
- You can set up your form so that not everyone must respond to each question. Based on a person's answer to a multiple choice or dropdown question, forms allow you to skip a section of questions. You can set up Forms to go on to the next set of questions, for instance, if a person selects "No" to the question "Do you use a laptop? ". To accomplish this, select the three vertical dots while on a multiple-choice or drop-down question (to the right of the "mandatory" slider), then select "Go to section based on answer," then enter the questions you want to be asked after each response.
- Select the sprocket (located above and to the right of "Send"), then check the "Restrict to users in your organisation" box if you want your form to only be filled out by those inside your G Suite organisation.
3. Send your form
- The "Send" button is located in the top right corner. Click it when you're ready to accept responses. then select one of the following six methods to share your form: Among these are Google+, Facebook, Twitter, an email, a link, an embed code, and a web page.
4. Receive and review responses
- There are at least three main methods for reviewing answers. You can view either a summary of responses or each individual response on the "Responses" tab on the form. Alternately, click the Google Sheet button to display data in a spreadsheet format with rows and columns and timestamps.
- When you get a response, you can decide whether or not to get an email. To activate email notifications, click the three vertical dots on the Responses page (right of the Google Sheets icon). Then, choose "Get email notifications for new responses."
- When using a Google Form as a contact form on a website, for instance, this can be extremely useful. That's it, then. Spend a little additional time converting your next printed form to a Google Form the next time you create or change one.
