Write a blog review of the Add-ons you chose and what hurdles you encountered and your overall experience. Creating a Google Survey was a relatively new experience for me so the learning curve on that was steep for me before I even began looking into Add-ons. It really made me aware that foundations really need to be strong before we ask students to stretch to the next level! I chose to create a survey for my entire staff seeking feedback about my digital graphing tool project. I plan to use their responses to really help me narrow in on who my audience will be (either K-5 or just 3rd-5th). I struggled with which type of question (linear scale, multiple choice, short answer, etc.) would give me the best feedback while at the same time trying to respect the amount of time it would take to complete the survey. I wanted the greatest possible number of teacher responses as possible so I wrote in my header that it would take 3 minutes to complete. ADD-ONS USED:
2. Doc Appender I thought I would like this Add-On more than I did. While I did like viewing the responses in a Google Doc vs. Sheets, it didn’t have the same visual impact for me as Advanced Summary. Since I am so inexperienced with Google Forms, it is hard for me to see the usefulness of this tool right now. Maybe as I become more proficient, I will be able to see a better use for this add-on. 3. Form Publisher I didn’t realize at the time that this Add-On is very similar to Doc Appender and so my inbox was flooded with Templates every time a teacher responded to my survey. I am still not quite sure about the purpose of these templates and it wasn’t quickly intuitive for me so I didn’t explore it too much. Once I found Advanced Summary, everything else seemed irrelevant to me because it is exactly what I wanted!

Dana- I really enjoyed your review of Advance Summary. You have inspired me to check it out also. How incredible that it echoed your project so closely!! I admire you researching further the use of it in your project, and even connecting with the 'honchos' at Houghton Miflin. Well done!!
