After our ICON session with Loretto Campbell on Friday several uses for Google forms sprang to mind. Initially, I thought that this would be a great way for students to nominate which students they wish to be placed with in class in the following year. This means it could be completed either at home in consultation with parents so that "good choices" could be made or, alternatively, in private so that more vulnerable students would not be subjected to the " pick me" pressure. The use of a drop down list of options means that students who are away for the day and/or in another classroom would not be omitted from choice.
The forms could also be used as a topic pre-test/post-test so that learning can be focused on the area of need and accurate assessment could be paper free.
