Overview

As we continue to transition to distance learning and blended models of instruction, it is important to create more opportunities for ESOL student interaction while finding effective ways to assess their learning. Google Forms is an application that can help us achieve these goals. In Google Forms for the Virtual ESOL Classroom – for Beginner Users, we will explore basic features of Google Forms to help us create forms or quizzes from a template, add items and images to a form, format and change questions, and more! The presenter will model ways to use Google Forms with English learners at any proficiency level.
