Creating Customization with Google Forms

Other Titles

Abstract

The University of Minnesota, like many institutions of higher education, recently adopted the Google Apps for Education Suite of tools for students, staff, and faculty. One particularly useful tool in this suite is the Google Form, which collects responses from a form in a Google Spreadsheet. Members of the University Libraries' Personal Information Management Collaborative (PIM) built a customized Google form using a few lines of Javascript code. The customized form asks respondents to indicate topics they'd like to know more about, and the code triggers an email to the respondent with links to tutorials, workshops, and other instruction in their areas of interest. This unique solution can be adapted for a variety of uses in higher education, increasing the basic functionality of the standard Google Form. This presentation gives an overview of the customized form created by PIM, and highlights resources and tools that enable participants to create their own custom solutions with Google Forms.
