Inbox with Google Forms
One of the challenges of using Google Docs with several classes is, managing all those documents can be overwhelming. An alternative is to set up an “Inbox”. A Google Form can be used to collect assignments.


 * 1) Click on Create > Form
 * 2) Make your form. Include the fields – Name, Class Period, Assignment Title, Link to Assignment, & Additional Information.
 * 3) Once you are done, copy the website address at the bottom of the page in the black bar.
 * 4) Publish the website address so students have access to it. For example, put it on your Fusion page.
 * 5) When it’s time to turn in an assignment, like a Google Document, students complete your simple form & submit the link to their paper.
 * 6) The information submitted by students automatically fills in a Google Spreadsheet connected with your form. Click on the link the student provided to view their document.

On the student side, students will need to change their share settings.


 * 1) Students will need to click on Share.
 * 2) They will need to change who has access to the document. Change Private to People at PCS with the Link & click on Save.
 * 3) Students then need to copy the URL for the document, & paste it in your form for you to access.
