With Google Docs, you can quickly create a form or survey, send it to students, parents, teachers, or staff, and keep track of the answers in one spreadsheet.

Since forms are filled out online, there’s no need to enter in results manually. Responses are collected and displayed immediately in a corresponding Google Docs spreadsheet which allows you to sort, analyze, and visualize the information.

You can send forms to anyone - even those outside of your school Apps domain. Respondants can access the form via email, a published webpage, or embedded on a site.
Forms also generates an automatic summary with charts, graphs, and statistics about your form responses and can notify you when new responses are submitted.
In this chapter we will review how to create, customize, and publish forms as well as walk through examples of how forms can be used at your school.
