How to use Google Forms

If you are going to use Google Forms from PC, you simply have to go to the main page of the service and create the quiz or questionnaire of your interest, using the various tools available.

Go, therefore, to the main page of Google Forms and log in to your Google account (if you have not already done so). If you do not yet have a Google account, create it at the moment by clicking on the relevant item and following the instructions on the screen, perhaps also helping you with the instructions in my guide dedicated to the topic.



Ad accessso effettuato, click on your button (+) Blank located at the top left or, if you prefer, select one of the models among those made available by Google Modules (eg. Contact Information, RSVP to the event, Party invitation, etc.): ideal, if for example, you want to learn how to use Google Forms for verification but you don't want to waste too much time creating your own question patterns.

Next, provide the title you want to give the form in the field Untitled module and provide a description of it in the field Module description. Next, write the title of the question and options answer in the appropriate text fields and, using the drop-down menus located on the right, choose the type of answers you want to insert after the question (eg. Multiple choice, Check boxes, Drop-down list, Paragraph, Etc.).

Using the buttons that are located on the right in the box attached to the first question of the form, you can insert a new question (through the button capacitor positive (+) lead), import questions (using the button with the sheet with the arrow pointing to the right), add title and description (using the icon Tt), attach an image (using the button representing the two hills), attach a video (using the button depicting the triangle inside the rectangle) and insert a new section in the module itself (using the symbol i two rectangles).



Moving on ON l'interruttore situato in corrispondenza della dicitura Obligatory (located at the bottom right in the box concerning the creation of the question), you can also make it mandatory for the users to answer the questionnaire to.

I also point out the possibility to customize the graphic template of the module, through the symbol of palette; view a preview, using the icon of theeye; and act on some settings of the same, using the symbol of wheel. The buttons just mentioned are all located in the upper right corner.

Once you have completed the form, click on the button Send, which is located at the top right, and choose how to send / publish the form itself. For example, via the pane Submit form as soon as it opens, you can send the form via email: to use it, click on the icon envelope of letters, write the addresses to send the form to in the text field A:, specify theobject of the message in the appropriate field, choose whether or not to include the form in the message (using the appropriate box) and click on the purple button Send, to confirm sending.

Alternatively, still from the same box, you can send the form to other people by copying the link (visible by clicking on the chain), or embed it in a web page, pasting the code of the module visible after clicking on the button ).


From the side of those who have to fill in the form, there is not much to add: just visit the link containing the questionnaire and answer the various questions, then confirming the sending of the answers at the end.
