Google Forms to make Self-Paced / Mastery Quizzes
Google Forms to make Self-Paced / Mastery Quizzes
You can use Google forms to create self-paced or mastery quizzes. A great way to use these forms is at an independent station in station rotation or as part of a playlist. Using this method, students cannot submit the form until they have answered all the questions correctly. You can even shuffle the answer choices to minimize cheating.
