PE3 Google Doc Forms

All fun must come to an end at some point and unfortunately for me it is now.   I really enjoyed this practical experience exercise with Google Doc Forms and me.  And guess what?  It really works!  That's right, the Student Motivation Survey form I created and sent out, worked like a charm.  I sent the survey via email to some of my friends and what was really exciting was that Google doc's automatically filled in the Google doc spreadsheet with all the responses to all questions as they were submitted.  

There is a really nice feature that I discovered called Summary of Responses.  To access this you go to the spreadsheet and select Forms then Show Summary of Responses and next thing you know, you will be presented with the following bar charts:

These charts display each question and the results from each participant.  You can visually see the distribution of responses and percent of each response overall. 

I love this tool and will use it when I perform my Action Research Student Motivation Survey during Cycle 1.  It was easy to create, monitor and interpret.  Gotta love Google!
