Some Examples
alt.ac.uk
Google Form Created for Assessment
As part of an effort to re-design an observational assessment, tutors had identified that the quality and speed of feedback needed to be
improved. After consultation, it was suggested that an existing paper
form could be replaced by a Google Form and completed ‘live’
using tablet devices.
See the form here.
Apps Script Written for Feedback Delivery
Following the creation of the Google Form, Apps Script was written that generates an HTML formatted feedback report and emails it to the student, School
administrator and themselves as soon as the tutor submits. As a result, students would receive
individual, legible and immediate feedback directly to their email
account as opposed to waiting days to collect it from the administrative
office.
See the script here.
Apps Script Shared with Colleagues
As this idea is highly adaptable, sharing the script with colleagues
has led to suggestions of how other processes could be modified. As it is
now used for 4 other purposes within this School alone, a
responsive webpage (hosted using Google Drive) has been created to allow staff to move between forms
from a single point of access, regardless of device.
See the form selector webpage here.
During the 2013/4 academic year, staff from across the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Keele University, called for assistance in relation to existing procedures involving assessment, feedback and the general dissemination of electronic materials. Following consultation, several solutions were trialed, mainly focusing upon technologies familiar to staff and at Keele (i.e. Blackboard, IntraLibrary, PebblePad and Google Apps for Education). As more demands were made, it became
clear that Google Apps for Education provided the most flexible and intuitive solution, giving rise to the idea that Google has the potential to provide the most complete learning platform; the GLE.
Below is one example of the types of intervention Google Apps for Education afforded. For information about other Google projects, please see http://goo.gl/9vMgHj.
