Add Sections to Your Form

Add structure to your form by creating sections.

Transcript

In the main lesson, you created a quiz form and added information for your guessing game to the form.

The information you added to your form is part of one long section, and with more information, the form could begin to look cluttered, making it hard for someone to follow and complete.

To fix this, you could add form sections to break up the form into smaller parts, making it easier to read and complete.

In this extension video, you will add sections to provide structure to your form.

Each section will show as its own page in your game.

You will also make the form show a certain section depending on how someone answers your guessing game question.

To begin, open your form.

Consider how you want to show the form’s information on the screen when someone is filling it in.

Maybe you want to group similar questions or show a new page for each question.

Select an area and add the section below it.

You could give the section a name or describe it.

Maybe you’d like to add a section to show an image as a hint or something else for your guessing game.

As you add sections, check their order.

This is the order the sections will show on screen.

Section 1 will start the form and then section 2 will show and so on...

You can also choose what happens after someone completes a section.

You can, continue to the next section or submit the form...

and you could decide which section of the form to go to based on the answer someone chooses.

For example, if someone guesses the correct answer to your quiz question, you could immediately submit the form to end the game.

If they guess the wrong answer, you could direct the person to your hint.

After you add one or more sections, preview the form to make sure it’s working as you intended and to check for errors.

Now, it’s your turn: Add a section and replace its title.

Add another section and replace its title.

Select a section to show based on an answer.


Add a Video

Add a video that supports information on your quiz form.

Transcript

Videos are useful for quizzes where you want someone to watch a video and then respond to related questions.

You can also use videos to explain how to do something or use it to explain an answer on your form.

In this extension video lesson, you will add a Youtube video to support information on your form.

To begin, open your form and add a video.

You could paste a video URL or search for a Youtube video.

You might want to show a video that gives instructions or one that relates to a question or answer on your form.

When you select a video, it will show as an image on your form.

You can click the image to watch the video.

You could replace the video if you ever need to.

When you have the video you want, give the video a title.

Maybe you want to move the video.

You could place it before or after a question or other part of your form.

Then you could preview it again to see how it looks.

Now, it’s your turn: Add a video to your form, Preview it, Name the video, And move the video, if you want.


Score Your Quiz

Add point values to questions to score your quiz.

Transcript

In the main lesson you changed your form to a quiz for your guessing game.

The quiz form lets you assign point values to score your quiz questions.

When you use point values, others can see the amount of points a question is worth and also see their final score based on their answer.

This might sound similar to how your teacher scores your tests and homework, where questions are worth points and the ones you answer correctly will determine your score or grade.

In this extension video, you will assign point values to questions on your form so others can see a score for their results.

To begin, open your guessing game form.

Add a new question.

Add options for the answer.

Google Forms may suggest options for you to use.

Select the correct answer in the answer key.

Next, add point values to the question.

You can use decimals and whole numbers.

Choose values based on how much each question is worth.

For example, it may be worth more if someone enjoyed your guessing game more than guessing the right answer.

Make the questions required if you do not want them to be skipped by accident or intentionally.

Then, exit the answer key and add points to another question.

You might want to rearrange the order of information on the form.

Next, allow others to see the point values or scores when they play your guessing game.

You can preview your form to see how it will look for others playing your game.

They will see the amount of points for each question.

And their scores with the total number of points for the game.

Send your quiz to a classmate so they can complete your quiz and see their score.

Now, it’s your turn: Add a multiple choice question, its options, and select the correct answer.

Assign point values.

Require answers to your questions.

Allow others to see point values.

And preview and send the form to a classmate.
