Due to the prolonged epidemic situation, teachers and students all had to take a long Tet holiday. Therefore, the need to use support tools in online teaching is increasing. I also have many tutorials on using common tools commonly used in online teaching such as Teams, Zoom, .. But most of the teachers have used Google mail and used Google Classroom in a familiar way. . So I share more with teachers how to use Google Form to create automatic grading tests and some tips in the process of using it.
First, to use Google Form, teachers must have a Google account (This is something everyone has if they have used Google Classroom)
Step 1: Teachers log in to their Google accounts. At the Google Apps icon, teachers choose Forms
Or, if you are in Google Drive (login to the link https://drive.google.com/ ) Then you select Create new -> More apps -> Google Forms
Step 2: After selecting Google Forms, a very simple interface is displayed, where teachers begin to design their tests.
Types of “questions” in Google Form:
- Short Answer: This is a short written answer question.
- Paragraph: Long text-answer question format.
- Multiple choice: The question type has 1 correct answer
- Check box: Question type with more than 1 correct answer.
- Drop-down menu: The question type has 1 correct answer but choose the answer from the drop-down list
- File Upload: Allows file upload when button is clicked.
- Linear range: The type of question requires responses to rank, by default from one to five. Teachers should choose the highest to lowest label according to the instructions. An example question might be “How satisfied are you with this tutorial?” Label number 1 is “Very Dissatisfied” and 5 is “Very Satisfied”.
- Multiple choice grid: Multiple choice question in which only one answer can be selected for each row or column, depending on the settings of the teacher.
- Checkbox grid: A row-column question type with more than 1 correct answer per row or column.
- Date: The type of question that the answer is in the form of a date
- Hours: The type of question that the answer is in the form of hours.
Several options
Step 2: Settings – After creating the questions for the test, the teacher clicks on the Setting icon (a cog) to configure the test.
At the general settings tab . Teachers can choose "Limit to 1 answer" so that each account (student) can only answer once. Because it is a test, teachers should not check "edit after submission" and "View summary chart and written answers" to avoid revealing results and answers.
At the presentation tab , the teacher has a few options as follows:
- Show progress bar: This option helps students see their progress
- Shuffle the order of questions: The questions in the test will be shuffled randomly, to avoid students looking at each other's work.
- Show link to submit another answer: Allows students to see a link to submit another answer (this option only shows up when the teacher allows students to take the test more than once)
- Confirmation letter: This section allows teachers to change the confirmation sentence when students press the submit button.
At the Test tab , the teacher notices some options
- Set as a test: This option helps teachers convert the multiple choice form that they have just created into an automatic grading test according to the teacher's configuration.
- Score announcement section
- Immediately after submission: Students will know the score immediately after submitting the work
- Then, after manual assessment: Students do not know the score immediately.
- Respondents can view
- Wrong Answered Question: Reviewing Wrong Answers
- Correct answer: Review the correct answers
- Score Value: Allows students to view grades.
So all the questions that the teacher has created will appear with the function of scoring each question and choosing the correct answer for the question.
Step 3: Set scores and answers for each question.
Teachers click on the questions to set the score and the answer, then click on the answer
Click on the score box to set the score for the question à Click on the correct answer → Click Done to complete
The next step, the teacher does the same until the test is completed.
Step 4: Share the test, Teachers Click the Share button to share the test with your students.
Teachers can share the test via email by entering the student's email in the To box
or
Click on the Link icon to share the quiz as a link, Teachers can click Shorten URL to make the sharing link more neat, click copy to copy the link and paste it into the email or a messaging tool that teachers use to communicate with students
Or
Click on the Embed icon to share in the embedded form, for this type of sharing, teachers can embed their quiz in the Elearning Websites they use, or a website, a certain blog and send the link. web page containing embedded quizzes for students.
So we have completed the test to send to students to do.
Teachers can check the submitted work by clicking on the Answers tab
Click on the Google Sheet icon to create a result file on Google Drive
Turn off the "Accept feedback" function when the test time is up.
Wish teachers have interesting teaching hours with Google Form
