<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Does anyone remember the old chapter books in the Choose Your Own Adventure<\/em> series? Readers would get to a certain point in the story and then have to choose the ending they preferred (does the princess marry the prince, does the hero find the treasure).<\/p>\n Well, now you can create stories like this for your classroom. Students will have lots of fun navigating through the adventure and choosing their own ending. Teachers can also use it for other free choice assignments. For example, students studying colonial America can choose the path of a settler, Native American, servant, explorer, etc. Another theme could be discussing consequences for various behavioral choices, such as \u201cWhat would you do if the substitute teacher got locked out of the room?\u201d For younger students, you can create \u201cYes\u201d and \u201cNo\u201d questions with pictures, such as “What do plants need to survive”?<\/p>\n First thing you have to do is open Google Forms within your G Suite for Education<\/strong> family of apps (you may have used this already for surveys or quizzes). Under the apps, you might have to click \u201cMore\u201d to reveal Forms.<\/p>\n Create a new blank form. Each Google Form question has the option of the answer being multiple choice (one answer), checkboxes (such as choose all that apply), text (writing in an answer), choose from a drop-down list, etc. For Choose Your Own Adventure, you only need Multiple Choice. In the first question field, write a brief scenario: \u201cYou have a substitute teacher. She mentions that she has the classroom door propped open because she doesn\u2019t have the key. She goes out in the hallway, and the door slams behind her. What do you do?\u201d<\/p>\n Click \u201cAdd a section.\u201d Rename this section \u201cPage 2.\u201d For answers, under \u201cOption 1\u201d write: Get on the intercom and phone the main office Click on the three dots (signifying More) and select: Go to section based on answer. Pull down to the desired section.<\/p>\n Each answer should direct the students to a different section. Choose the section for each answer (Option (or answer) 1 goes to Page 2; Option 2 goes to Page 3, etc). If you name the sections instead of leaving them as Page 2, Page 3, it will make them easier to identify.<\/p>\n Make all questions \u201cRequired\u201d<\/strong> to answer.<\/p>\n You want the last answer to go to \u201cSubmit Form.\u201d<\/strong> That is the end of the form. So, when you have two alternative endings, the very last one will automatically go to Submit Form. Make sure you change the next-to-last answer to Submit Form (don’t leave it as Next Section, or it will go to the final answer).<\/p>\n When all questions have been directed to the desired section, you can end the adventure. You might want to put a final message, like \u201cThanks for playing\u201d or in our example, \u201cThanks for making responsible choices!\u201d Go to Settings & Presentation and type your confirmation message.<\/p>\n Under Settings, you can also restrict who answers the quiz and whether they are limited to one response each. Click on the \u201ceye\u201d icon to preview the quiz. To share the form, click Send and get the link.<\/p>\n If you create an original form and share it, you will want to change the last word from “Edit” to “Copy”, so no one edits your original form. You do not have to do this if you are just sharing a form with your class. Have fun choosing your own adventure!<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n\nUsing Google Forms to Choose Your Adventure<\/strong><\/h2>\n
