Google forms that made Teacher's Life Easier: An Experience and Experimentation

Abstract

"Present generation is born after internet was Born" which speaks about Technology, Smartphones, and Social Networks. These tech-giants show its impact on students, who are getting into engineering profession. The process of learning engineering requires lot of efforts from both learners and teachers. Several researches are under process in order to optimise the teaching process to address the current generation. It has also become very difficult for the present generation learners to adapt to the old pedagogy techniques and tools to get interactive with teachers. The techniques of teaching have generated huge data which is a big challenge for the teachers to manage. To handle such huge data several tools are available which also facilitate its analysis. One such user-friendly tool is Google form. Usage of Google form reduces workload, increases efficiency and accuracy of a teacher's work. This paper speaks about an experience of usage of google forms in engineering education which changed means of approach towards students, thinking, collection of information and working style of a teacher in this era.
