Microsoft Forms
From Help Wiki
Microsoft Forms allows you to quickly create polls, quizzes, and surveys. Data is compiled in real-time and can be exported directly into a spreadsheet for analysis.
Getting Started
The Evergreen Form Template
When conducting official college business, always use the Evergreen-approved template. This ensures the security of sensitive data (like user emails) and helps respondents verify that the form is an official college document.
IMPORTANT: Start with the template first. You cannot apply Evergreen branding to an existing form later. If you’ve already started a form, you will need to copy and paste your questions into a new one created from the template.
Quick Start Guide
- Access the Template: Please submit a technology support request to receive the link.
- Create Your Copy: Click the More Options (...) icon on the template tile and select Copy. This creates a duplicate for your own use.
- Personalize: Open your duplicate and rename it to match your project.
- Build & Share: Add your questions and adjust branching logic. Once ready, you can share via:
- Direct Link
- Email Invitation
- QR Code
Linked Spreadsheets
If you link a form with a spreadsheet to gather results do not modify the spreadsheet. Changing spreadsheet columns and rows can cause the form data to become unlinked.
Forms from Microsoft Lists
If you are managing data within Microsoft Lists, you can create a form directly from the list to streamline data entry.
