We will show how we use Google Forms to mimic an assortment of laboratory exercises from our biology and microbiology lab courses. We will discuss how we assess the students using the content, and the advantages and disadvantages of using Google Forms from our experiences.
We have used Google Forms to deliver online only laboratory sessions when in-person and hybrid labs were not an option these last 1.5 years. Using Google Forms allows us to customize the content and the assessments to our specific needs and keep the authorship entirely ‘in-house’. It is free to use for both faculty and students. In this session, we will show participants how we use Google Forms to mimic an assortment of laboratory exercises from our biology and microbiology lab courses. We will discuss how we assess the students using the content, and the advantages and disadvantages of using Google Forms from our experiences.
