New features for Educators in Microsoft Forms!
Listening to millions of users’ voices, and leveraging latest Microsoft technology, we improved Microsoft Forms to be more collaborative and productive, by adding following capabilities: Collaboration: Forms sharing will enable form designers to share forms with other people, or invite others to be the co-owners so that they can work on one form together collaboratively. Grading: New quiz grader will help teachers on their most painful grading work. Grading workflow will enable teachers to easily grade the result, give comment and post score to students. Teachers will get the time back to enjoy more interesting work. Math: form math equation support and intelligence on answer suggestion are the new innovation to benefit math teachers to easily input the equation, and compose a quiz, which is no other competitors offering today. Intelligence: Form’s smart suggestions for choice question will make design time with delightful surprises, and change designing a question from few minutes to one click.
How can you lock down a Form once live?
Hi, I've tried to search for this issue but not really finding the correct answer... In Forms how can you 'lock' a form or a quiz in to a final version so that once you have shared the link, the form/quiz cannot be amended? As it stands, I set up all of the forms/quizzes within my firm and therefore I am my own safeguard that nothing is being edited and amended on a live form. However, in case of illness, I have been asked to start sharing these files so that someone else could pick them up. When I have used the 'Share to collaborate' link, the person that the file has been sent to can edit the file (as intended by it's functionality) BUT I want the form/quiz to be un-editable after it has gone live? TIA
Strange random behavior shared forms
Since a week or so we see and hear strange behavior with Forms. When I create a new form I'm sometimes able to share with people outside my organisation and one moment later I'm not (it's greyed out). When you look again a hour or so later it's posible we can share again. If shared, people outside and inside the organisation can have random issues. -Some internal users who have a Forms Pro Trial license cannot open the link (you can see in top of the screen Forms Pro opens). When I disable the trial license the link does open. -External users cannot open the form. The see the message (translated from Dutch) Something went wrong: External users cannot anwser this form because of IT policy. The strange thing is that when they try multiple times it sometimes does open. When filling the form they get a message: disconnected from server. I'm completely lost what to do. It worked fine till now...
Microsoft Forms - Share to collaborate with external users not working
I created a Microsoft form and selected the share option " Share to collaborate" and chose the "Anyone with this link can view and edit". I then copy the link provided and forward to an external user, when the external user clicks on the link they are taken to a Microsoft forms webpage which requires a login. This feature was working a few weeks ago.(meaning the external user was not required to login) Has Microsoft made changes to this function? I have also verified the Admin center setting for Microsoft Forms and currently have one option "External collaboration People in my organization can share an edit link and a summary of responses to a form with external users." which is turned on. Any ideas?
