Effective communication with your students starts with a well-designed form. Forms also serve as a great way to gather feedback from students. Here’s how to create one.

Step 2. Click on the Create a new Form button, as shown in the picture.

  • Add image - upload an image to make the form visually appealing
  • Description - write a few words about the purpose of the form or how the students are expected to fill that in. 
  • Author - click on the dropdown arrow to choose the author. If you haven't created an author before, click on 'Create New Author.' This will redirect you to the author creation page. Fill in all the required fields, then click 'Save.' Go back to the form creation page, and you will see a notification prompting you to refresh the author list.

Linear - Only form questions are shown

 

 

Sidebar - Beside the form question, there's sidebar text that provides additional context for the form.

 

 

When you choose the sidebar type, make sure to write a descriptive explanation of how students can use the added resources and attach the relevant files.

 

Save and go ahead. 


Step 4. Add the questions.

  • Multiple choice
  • Choice of one right answer
  • Dropdown
  • Short text
  • Long text

Publish-  Select this option if the form is ready to be filled in by students.

Unlisted- select this option so only the students you send the link to can access the form.
