Editing the Quiz

You can now see the Quiz in edit mode. Here, you can make changes to the Quiz, such as adding or changing questions, changing the score for each question, and changing the settings. For example, if you want to give your students the ability to submit unfinished work and come back to complete it at a later point, click on the settings tab at the top of the page and turn on “Allow response editing.” You can also choose whether to release scores immediately, or release after manual review if you want to check responses first.

Assigning

You can easily assign our Google Activities whether or not you use Google Classroom.

If you are outside of Google Classroom

Click SEND at the top of the screen. You’ll get the option of emailing all of your students a link to the activity or copying a link to it which you can then paste into whatever program you use to share links with students.

Grading

Viewing Responses

Once your students have completed the assignment, you can view each of their work within Google Forms and grade any constructed response questions.

1. Open up the activity you assigned in Google Forms. (You should be able to click into it from your assignment in Google Classroom, or find it in your Google Drive.)

2. Click the “Responses” tab at the top to see a list of Student responses. If you don’t see a Responses tab, make sure you’re in editing mode: Just open up the Google Form you assigned and click on the pencil icon on the bottom right of the screen, and then you should see the Responses tab at the top of the page.

3. In the “Responses” tab, click on the “Individual” button. That’s where you’ll be able to look through each student’s response.

Importing Grades into Google Classroom

Depending on how your school is set up in Google Classroom, you may also have the option of importing grades directly from the Form. To do that, click “Grade Importing” when you create the assignment in Google Classroom.

Then, once the forms are completed by the students, you’ll see an “Import Grade” button for that assignment in Google Classroom. Click on that to pull in all the grades for the class.

Returning Grades

If you have chosen to release scores after manual review (in the Settings tab) then you’re done with grading the Google Activities, there are a few ways you can return the scores to your students:

If you are outside of Google Classroom

In the Responses tab of the form, you’ll see a “Release Score” button at the top of each student’s response. Click that, and you’ll be able to send an email to your student with their final grade, as well as any feedback you’d like to give.

If you are in Google Classroom

When you’re looking at the assignment, there should be a list on the left-hand side with the name of every student that returned the activity, along with their grades. (You may need to enter the grades in this area yourself, or you could have the option of importing the grades from the quiz—that depends on how your school is set up with Google.) You’ll see a RETURN button at the top. Click that button, and then students will be able to see their scores in Google Classroom, without them having to check their email accounts. They’ll find their scores if they click into the assignment, and also if they go into the “Classwork” tab and click “View your work”.
