Google Forms

If I had to choose only one online tool that has made the greatest impact on me I would have to say Google Forms.  This tool has simplified, and stream-lined so many tasks for me personally and professionally this year.  Google Forms are easy to create, easy to use, easy to analyse, and easy to manipulate when the data is collected, regardless of the purpose.

I have used Google Forms to:
 gather student information,
gather parent contact information, ,
  math quizzes or extra credit, 
schedule parent-teacher conferences
Gather Wreath Orders for my daughters

These are a few of the ways I have utilized Google Forms recently. There is an unlimited number of ways to utilize a Google Form.  Our school has recently gone to reporting detentions/disciplinary referrals via a Google Form.  This is posted in a central location for all staff to access.  By moving this to an electronic form, it is quicker, and easier to notify everyone of the infraction.  Then the spreadsheet is automatically created to analyse our disciplinary referrals for MBI purposes.

I am currently working on a form to collect all our family's contact information (addresses, emails, phone number) and important family dates (birthdays, anniversary's, etc)

I look forward to continuing to explore ways to utilize Google Forms in my personal and professional life.
