Google Forms are an app in the suite of tools available to all learners through their Google Apps for Education accounts. More information here They are free and have unlimited questions and respondants. You can customise the survey to be as attractive as you like and in context. The answers are populated into a google sheet in real time for analysis. The potential of and uses of this app is vast, for learning and to use for feedback about any aspect of the school. You can create quizzes and tests easily and use an extension to grade answers!

On behalf of Gairloch High School, who shared this fantastic example. The S2 class have been learning about the importance of sleep and wanted to enter a National Sleep Competition to win a prize for the school (winners not announced yet). Becky completed a small survey but it was responded to so well, the survey was then completed by all of S2, even by a pupil away in Thailand!

The survey results show that half the S2 pupils think they should get more sleep! It has inspired dicussions, ways to help young people get more sleep via a pupil led group. Their survey inspired the poem below, well done Becky!

In the words of Becky (S2)
