Google Forms and CBSE's Objective Type Questions.

Hello Fellow Educators!

In the recent months Central Board of Secondary Education, India's premier school education board and assessment authority has brought about some fundamental changes in the design of the Class 10 and 12 Board Exam question paper for all subjects. The biggest of them is 20 marks worth of objective type questions. It is a given that Classes 9 and 11 will follow the same pattern as we try to acclimatise our students to these new assessment methods.

Today the CBSE released the sample papers for Classes 10 and 12 for all subjects. Find the links below:

So how are you planning to provide this practice for your students? 

I know many of you are making worksheets and administering them to your students either as homework or in the classroom. Once you have collected the work from the students, you need to correct the Objective Question Worksheets. 

How long does it take you to go through all the students' worksheets and give them feedback? A minute per worksheet? So 30/40/50 minutes? 

That's just busy work. You are doing mindless, repetitive work. Writing the similar feedback again and again and again. Just take a step back and think how this monotonous and tedious work is adding value to your students' learning or your creativity and most importantly is it giving you the time and scope to enrich and deepen your relationship with your students?

Most likely not. So what do you do? What if you could automate the grading and standard feedback process? 


Work smart, not hard....


Google Forms is your answer. If you set it up as a Quiz, you can...........


1. Different types of questions:

2. You can preset the Answer Key




3. You can add feedback based on the answers of the students

Once you set up your form, you can reuse this with multiple sections, across academic sessions, updating as required. Once ready, the students can get instant feedback, within seconds of submitting their work. 

This timely feedback is always more relevant than feedback given the next day or the next week!
