Google Docs


We will be using Google Docs to create our surveys, charts and graphs, and our powerpoint presentations. You can access the site at http://google.com/a/is281.com and sign in using your User Name and Password.


Once you have signed in, you are ready to start creating your survey. Follow these steps in order to create your group survey:
  • 1 person in the group will click on "New", then "Form"
  • Give your survey a Title and add directions
  • Click on "SAVE" and then close the survey
  • Once you are back to your main Google Docs page, click on the CHECK BOX next to your survey and then click on "SHARE"
  • Then, type in the email addresses of the people in your group (each email will end with @is281.com). Please share your survey with your teachers as well.
  • You can all now edit the survey
  • Once you open the survey, click on "Form", then "Edit Form"

You will have to come up with 5-10 questions that you want others to answer. You can choose multiple choice questions, text questions, scale of 1-10 questions, etc... Please make sure that you check the box that says "Make this a required question". If it's a multiple choice, you should "Add other" so that people can type in their own answers. Make sure you click on "DONE" when you have created the question.

There are a few REQUIRED questions that everyone should include in their surveys. These questions will help you to analyze and group your data. If you think of any other questions that you feel will help you analyze and group your data, please feel free to include them.

  • What is your FIRST name?
  • What is your age?
  • What is your gender?

We use graphs for like businesses. For example like a a company that sells cars. There amount of cars being sold are increasing. They would use a line graph to show the rate of the cars being sold. There rate would either be decreasing or increasing.
