Thing 7

I like the spreadsheet but am thinking about practical applications for sharing this and other forms at school. One thing we could do is have the kids put the log-in names and some other basic info all our teaching staff could use, then share it among the teachers at SCC.

Again, we'd have to identify what we really want to know so we weren't just creating a form with no real purpose or value, just for the sake of creating a form. One thing we could do is collect information like when the student expects to graduate (we have alternative high schoolers, so our classes are a mix of different grade levels), what career plans each student has, whether the student has a child (or children), etc.

We could use this for the yearbook, etc. to collect data. We could create a poll and use the spreadsheet to see how many people responded a particular way. I could see doing that in my social studies classes. It is something like the Forum in Moodle, but more concise and easier to compare responses.
