TwosDay - Mystery Guest - Hacking Google Forms



Can you guess the mystery guest for this week’s TwosDay video? 

The word hack refers to a trick, shortcut, skill, or novelty method that increases productivity and efficiency.  Today we bring you a hack for Google forms.  This useful hack will allow you, the teacher, to put a temporary pause somewhere in a Google form so that your students may not move ahead.  Stopping students in the middle of a form may be useful for a brief lecture from the teacher, or some reflective conversation with a classmate before moving on.  To use this hack, create a question that requests a 4-digit code from the student.  Set the response validation option to be equivalent to a specific number that the teacher chooses.  Be sure to enter some custom text such as “please wait for further instruction.”  Set the question to be required and you’re all set.  Your students will be forced to stop in the middle of the form until they receive the secret code from you. Send the HOTSpot an email if you can identify the mystery guest. The first one to respond wins a prize!!
