Recycling Questions from Google Form Quizzes - It's Not Just For Lazy People Anymore

Google Forms, probably due to budget cuts or global warming, didn't make it possible for me to swipe a question from my Week 1 AP Lit Terms test and stick it on my Week 2 AP Lit Terms test like I wanted to. How can I make a good cumulative test without, ya know...accumulating questions? So I have a fix that works pretty well. Wrote a little blog about it! Like to read it? Here it go! (If you didn't just read that in the voice of En Vogue, we can't be friends.)

In your second test, add on Form Recycler (from the Get Add Ons little puzzle piece icon). Follow the prompts - it will ask you to pick your first test and then pick the questions you want to swipe. I'll save you one headache - if you added cutesy test questions with images, they aren't coming...you can stop waiting. Just swipe your regular old text-based questions and they'll import to your new test just fine. The answers will too.

Fast fix! Your students will appreciate the extra effort you are putting into your job. Carry on!

  1. Have you noticed that it appears image questions can now be recycled if you buy the unlimited plan. Also the free version now has limits. I'm having some difficulty finding a way to contact the creator to clarify a few things before I purchase...not a good sign...but I love this Addon
