Resource Guide - Microsoft Forms

Description

Microsoft Forms are available to you through your Office 365 subscription. With Forms, you can easily create a survey or quiz and see results in real-time. The first time you open Forms you will see a wizard to walk you through basic steps.  After that, you will choose to create a new form/quiz or open an existing one.  As with other Office 365 applications, you can also share forms and use group forms. All forms (surveys and quizzes) start with naming the form and then adding these types of questions :

  • Choice (Multiple Choice or True-False)
  • Text
  • Rating
  • Date
  • Likert
  • File Upload
  • Net Promoter Score
  • Section

Additional options are available for changing the theme, adding images, copying or re-ordering questions, making a question required, and adding a subtitle, restrictions, math and branching, Surveys, quizzes, and polls can be distributed to your users or audience through a hyperlink or QR code in an email or webpage. The ellipses menu found in the upper right corner of an existing form or quiz provides options to copy the form/quiz, delete it or move it. At the bottom of an existing form or quiz, you will see the number of responses.
