Activity 2: How might Google Docs be valuable for mobile learning?

In a small group, create a document, presentation, spreadsheet, or form to illustrate your answer.
Publish the file and add the lead learner as a collaborator. Links to the files will be added below.
One member of each small group will present the file to the large group.

Activity 3: Create a self-grading quiz! (Time permitting)

  • In a small group, create a three question quiz using a Google Form.
  • Solicit sample answers from other participants.
  • Create an IF formula for each question to "grade" the question. (Each IF formula needs to be in a new column.)
  • Fill Down so that the IF formulas you've written can "grade" all the responses at once!
  • Advanced: Create a SUM formula to total up the total score for each person that took the quiz. Then create another formula to calculate the percentage. Finally, create a nested IF formula to convert the percentages to letter grades!
  • Time Permitting: Share your quiz with the lead learner. Links to the quizes will be added below.
