Google Forms

It is possible to create online forms to create polls among your friends or work collaborators. You can choose different types of questions:

Exemple de Google Forms (editant)

Open answers:

• Short text.

  Exemples: name, city, email, etc.

• Long (paragraph) text.

  Exemples: explanation, opinion, "what do you think about", feedback, etc.

Closed answers: (are better for making statistics)

• Multiple choice: several choices but just one possible answer.

  Example: age (1-10, 10-20, 20-30, etc.), gender (male/female), etc.

• Checkboxes: similar to multiple choice but you can select several at the same time.

  Example: languages you can speak (catalan, spanish, english, german, russian, french, arabic, others)

• Choose from a list: the same of multiple choice but with a popup menu.

Rating answers: (you can qualify a question with a grade in a scale)

• Scale: you give a rate to your opinion.

  Example: Rate your satisfaction with our product (1: bad - 5: very good).

• Grid: a set of questions about something with the same rate style.

  Example: rate wich of these applications you know/use:

  • Grades (columns): 1=never heard about it, 2=I've heard about it but never used, 3=I used it once, 4=rarely, 5=once a month, 6=every day
  • Questions (rows): Firefox, Gimp, Audacity, Wireshark, Apache, Cubase, Final Cut
