Survey Responses

Let’s take a survey and check out how we can examine data points.

Go to : https://forms.gle/RGkeDCMBgQp39CTK7 and play!

We’ve looked at how to create questions, what happens once we have some data points?

You can see responses to your Forms right inside the program. Click the “Responses” tab:

Check out this GIF for a step-by-step breakdown of opening up the responses:

You can take your data analysis further by clicking on the Sheets button. This will populate a live Sheet spreadsheet containing all your questions and responses. Across the top columns, you’ll see your questions. Each row represents an individuals’ responses to the survey.

We can email our survey to folks, copy and share a link, or embed the survey into a website with HTML (we’re not doing HTML at this time):

Often, the link will be your easiest option. Folks do not need a Google account to respond to the survey.
