Google Forms in the Classroom for Students to Turn in Digital Work

It seems everyone is making Escape Rooms lately. They are so much fun! But you do not need to invest in actual combination locks to do it. All you need is a Google Form!

***Teaching Tip!*** Always check to be sure your Google Form is working properly BEFORE giving it to your kids. Do this by using the “view” button at the top. Go though the whole thing just like you were a student. I have found SO many mistakes.

  1. Thanks, great article. Some time ago I’ve intersted this issue and found a lot of info , but this article made me to review my opinion.

  2. I am very intrigued by all the possibilities of using Google in the classroom. My question is centered in my current location and teaching responsibilities. I live and work in China, albeit I am an experienced USA teacher of 25 years in the states. Google and China are at war still and to access Google, students need to use a VPN. That said, my students have access to such a tool; however, we currently do work in a Platform (Utah Common Core) kind of Learning Management System that certainly doesn’t have the functionality of Google/Google Classroom. I also don’t want to have to double my workload which is already taxing creating contemporary and usable curriculum inside the standards. I know I can make a stand alone Google Classroom, but how can I avoid double work? Implement all these wonderful features that require work to be submitted into the Platform? I am open to suggestions. Please keep in mind that I work in China. Thank you.

    1. Hello Scott! I am not sure what advice I could offer. I am not familiar with the Utah Common Core platform, are you required to post your assignments there? Can you post a link to the Platform as an assignment? For example, could you make a google form in your Google Drive, then post the share link to the Platform. Students would access the link though the Platform, but all of the data from their work would be accessed through your Google Drive. Is the Platform linked to your grade book? Google would not communicate any grades directly to the platform, you would have to enter those as you grade assignments made with Google Apps (Google Docs, Google Forms, etc). I am sorry I can not be of more help!
