1) Student Email Address: I always have the students input their student email address so I know who completes the form as well as having the ability to send them their grade on the assignment after I grade it using the add-on Flubaroo. I found it much easier to have their school domain already filled in for them using the pre-filled option. (How to create a pre-filled Google Form Blog Post.)
2) ID Number: I have the students submit their student ID numbers as a form of double verification.
3) Period Number: Because I teach multiple classes of Algebra 1 I need to organize the results by periods.
4) Embed the Video: For this school year I have made sure all of my videos are on YouTube so I can embed them into a Google Form. It is also much more useful for students since they can view YouTube videos on their mobile devices.
5) Link to the Video: There are times that the embedded video does not work on their mobile devices so I include the direct link to the video.
6) Image of the Question: Google Forms allow you to insert images into a form. Unfortunately you can not just copy and paste an image. You have to have the file saved on your computer as an image file to upload to the form. I usually just screen capture a few problems from worksheets and save those files. Useful apps for screen captures are Snipping tool, Skitch and PicPick. (Screenshots Made Easy Blog Post)
7) Multiple Choice Question: A large majority of the questions I have the students answer after the video are multiple choice questions. It makes grading and comparing the data easier.
8) Image of a Horizontal Line: Without inserting and image of a horizontal line it is hard to see what question corresponds to what multiple choice options. This is not really needed.
The morning after the assignment I grade it using Flubaroo, email the students their grades and use the Summary of responses within forms to guide the lesson for the day.
Thank you very much for sharing. This is very useful.
