Flubaroo

How many of you have used Google Forms to create quick, online assessments for students?  If you have, you probably know that after students complete the form you receive a spreadsheet filled with student responses.  Are you looking for a way to dig through that data?  I have a tip for making that Google Form work better for you (just in time for end of semester assessments)...it is called Flubaroo.

It is a free tool (it's actually a Google script) that can help you grade multiple choice or fill-in-the-blank assessments created with Google Forms. In addition to correcting your quiz, Flubaroo computes the student's grade and provides teachers with a summary of class data, inclduing identification of low-scoring quiz items and a distribution graph of student scores.This is a great alternative to other sites that may be slow or connectivity may not be reliable.   

Click here to access the Flubaroo website that has more details, a sample form, and a 3-minute video tutorial.  Please use Google Chrome as your browser.  It doesn't play well with Internet Explorer or Firefox.  If you want help trying this out, I am happy to help.  Just email me and I can set up a time to walk you through the process.  

Isn't this awesome for formative assessments?!!
