Google Forms has several applications (pun intended) in our classrooms. One is for us to survey our students, but we can also create projects in which students use Google Forms to survey their peers about various topics. The cool thing about this is that the kids find a direct connection to the data that results from the survey because they supplied that data. It's not data from somewhere "out on the Internet", it's data from them and their friends.
In the 7th Grade tech classes, we have the students create surveys that explore how they and their peers use technology. Then we analyze the results of their surveys and generate class discussion about the impact of technology on our lives.
Here is the link to the directions for this project. The top part of the page is directions for creating a survey, which you might find useful. Near the middle of the page is where the students share their survey by posting a link into a teacher created form. Then all of their survey links end up in a spreadsheet, where they can go to take each other's surveys.
