\"RedNow that everyone is teaching online, active learning strategies like minute papers and muddiest point are hard to manage spontaneously. In a campus classroom, you can ask everyone to share responses out loud or on a piece of paper. In an asynchronous online class, students aren\u2019t able to participate in quite the same way.<\/p>\n

Google Forms can give you a quick and easy solution. Create a form with the question you want to use to begin a presentation or demonstration, students respond using the form, and you use their responses to frame your presentation.<\/p>\n

Create Your Form<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Log into your Google Drive<\/a> account.<\/li>\n
  2. Create a new Google Forms file, using Google Help<\/a> if you need more details.<\/li>\n
  3. Give the form file a straightforward title (such as \u201cPresentation Topic Survey\u201d).<\/li>\n
  4. Add a description or explanation if desired. I added details on how I would use the survey.<\/li>\n
  5. Change the question type, if necessary. I changed the question to \u201cParagraph\u201d so that student have room to write a few sentences as their response.<\/li>\n
  6. Add the one question that you want students to respond to. I used the question \u201cWhat topic have you chosen for your presentation? Give me specific details in a sentence or two.\u201d<\/li>\n
  7. If desired, click the Palette icon <\/i> on the upper right and customize the appearance of the form.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    My example Presentation Topic Survey<\/a> shows what the resulting form looks like. You will notice that I added a second question asking students for contact information if they wanted a personal response. That step is completely optional. <\/p>\n
