Canva och årshjul Har nu testat Canva ett par gånger och är helt såld!

Use Google Forms to create a self-grading quiz Andy Wolber shows us how to use Google Forms to build an automated quiz using the survey tool. Google Forms provides a free tool to create and gather survey data. Web based forms can save a lot of time.
