Choose a Topic and Build a Quiz

In the previous video, you learned why quizzes are a useful tool for studying and testing knowledge of a topic.

In this video, you will choose a topic for your quiz.

Then, you will open Google Forms and create a quiz.

You could create quizzes in a document or on paper, but with Forms you can add question formats that are easier for the quiz-taker to complete and can be graded automatically.

To start, choose a topic for your quiz.

Your teacher may assign you a subject.

Or you may have something in mind that you want to study.

Some possible quiz topics include: vocabulary or concepts, facts about a place or a time period, current events, or literary devices, plot, theme, or characters.

Consider topics you need to review for an upcoming test, report, or presentation.

Or, choose a school subject and test your partner's knowledge.

When you've chosen a topic, create a new tab in your browser and open Google Forms.

Start a new, blank Form.

Update the settings to make this a quiz.

Give your quiz a title.

Make the specific subject of your quiz clear.

Then, write a brief description of the quiz, including any details that might help the person taking your quiz, such as textbook chapters referenced, or period of time being covered.

Now, it's your turn: choose a topic for your quiz, open Google Forms in a new tab, change the settings to quiz, and give your quiz a title and description.
