57 TopicsWhat’s new in Copilot in Microsoft Forms – Ignite 2024
This is the special edition of what’s new in Form covering all of the Copilot in Forms features we’re announcing at Microsoft Ignite 2024. Copilot in Forms launched with a compose capability in February, and this summer, we took it further to cover key steps of the authoring experience; writing, rewriting, theme, settings and creating quizzes. In the next step, we will introduce a new capability to help you collect sufficient responses. Let’s dive into the details below. Form generation First, let’s focus on the new features in form generation. Imagine you are creating an employee feedback survey to assess employees' job satisfaction and find areas for improvement, let’s see how Copilot can assist you throughout the process. Generate a form with Copilot You can either start from prompt suggestions or write your own prompt. In this case, you can tell Copilot to create an employee feedback survey to gauge the satisfaction level. You can specify the number of questions and what aspects you want to ask about. Once the information is provided, Copilot will generate a draft based on your instructions. Generate form draft with Copilot You will have the flexibility to fine tune the draft by providing additional details to Copilot for regenerating, asking to add two more questions for the work from home policy. When you get a good draft, just click “Keep it”, and Copilot will generate the finalized form for you. Add questions to the draft Continue adding questions and rewrite After the survey has been generated, you can continue editing the form manually or with Copilot’s assistance, adding new questions or rewriting existing questions/options for improved clarity and effectiveness. Continue adding new questions Rewrite questions Refine the form with Copilot’s suggestions Once the survey is generated, Copilot will offer smart suggestions to make it better, including eye-catching themes, appropriate settings (such as allowing respondents to receive a receipt for record-keeping and transparency) and the best channels to send out for maximum engagement. Copilot suggestions Collect more answers with Copilot’s help When the survey is ready, Copilot will help you rewrite the default message with more suitable tones, adding details like the form's topic, estimated completion time, and due date. This gives respondents a clearer understanding of the survey's purpose and timeline, making it easier for them to complete on time. Rewrite distribution message with Copilot If you send out the form and don't receive enough responses from the employees after some time, Copilot can help you draft reminder messages to nudge respondents. It offers several options, allowing you to choose your favorite and send it with just one click. Draft a reminder with Copilot Quiz generation In addition to form generation, we've also enabled new features for quiz creation. Imagine you're crafting a quiz for compliance and ethics training at your company—let's explore how Copilot can assist you in building the perfect quiz. Copilot generates a quiz with answer explanations You can provide Copilot with some context of this training or just paste content from any materials on hand to generate a quiz. The quiz will be generated with correct answers and detailed explanations for each question. Generate a quiz with correct answers Copilot helps you refine quizzes too. It will help you rewrite questions, continue adding questions and offer smart suggestions, and you can even rewrite the answer explanations. Additionally, for newly added questions, Copilot can automatically generate detailed answer explanations based on the correct answers you mark, saving you time on manual input. Rewrite answer explanation with Copilot Generate answer explanation for newly added questions Immediate results and answer explanation for responders When respondents submit the quiz, they can view the results immediately and review the answer explanations to understand which areas they already mastered or where they could improve. Check results and answer explanations after submitting What’s next Moving forward, we aim to make Copilot in Forms even more helpful, guiding you with suggestions throughout the journey to achieve your goals. Copilot helps to collect target response In the upcoming experience, you will be able to set your target response number, and Copilot will suggest the right audience, channels for distribution, and appropriate messages to collect more responses. Copilot helps to collect target response Smart reminder Additionally, Copilot will keep you updated on the response status. After some time, if the response count does not meet your target, Copilot will remind you to send a follow-up message to the respondents. With just one click, Copilot will help you send the reminder. Send reminder for more responses Stay tuned - these new updates are coming in January 2025.1.1KViews1like1Commentblock attachments on outlook mobile application

We’re going to be launching Collab365 MicroJobs at our Collab35 Global Conference on November 1st. What is it? Collab365 MicroJobs is a dedicated marketplace for Microsoft professionals to buy and sell ‘micro jobs’ across technologies such as Office 365 (SharePoint, PowerApps, Teams, Flow), Azure, ASP.Net/MVC and Windows. To launch we’re looking for 50 experts to offer their services so that we can showcase them to 1000’s at the Collab365 Global Conference. What is a “Micro Job”? A Micro Job (also known as a ‘gig’) is a small discrete piece of work that you can perform for a customer. It’s not a permanent job, or even a long-term contract. Think of a Micro Job as something that will take between 1 hour and 2 days to complete. (We expect the average to be 2-3 hours). We also expect that nearly all the Micro Job’s performed on Collab365 MicroJobs will be done remotely using tools like Skype, GotoMeeting, etc. Who are we looking to partner with for our launch? The type of person we’re hunting for will be an expert in a Microsoft technology and also have one (or all) of the following: Received an MVP / MCM Be a Microsoft Certified Trainer Recognised Speaker Highly active in the community What are the benefits? There are many benefits to becoming a MicroJob’s seller (depending on who you are) : The Entrepreneur You may be working as a permanent employee and / or have entrepreneurial tendencies but would like to pay for that next holiday, improve your skills and also turbo-charge your CV. Example: You could offer a pair-programming call via Skype while the tea is cooking. The Consultant You may be working for a consultancy and looking to forge new relationships with clients from around the world. What better way to build that initial relationship than to provide an introductory service with them? Example: You offer a 2-hour call to help a customer with a business case to move to Office 365. The ISV You may be working in an ISV and struggling to find new customers. If you can offer something that your product does (and do it for them), the next natural step will be for them to purchase a license. Example: If you sell a migration tool, you could offer to migrate a small piece of something to get the customer over a barrier. The Trainer You may be a skilled trainer who is looking to work from home and spend more time with the kids. With the tools in place today, remote one-on-one training has become much easier to achieve. Example: Load up Skype for business, hit screen share and take them through a course on “How to get the most out of Microsoft Teams”. How will we get buyers to find your jobs? We’ve been active in the Microsoft community for a long time now. We have a network of Collab365 sites getting 1000’s of visitors per day. We also run massive, online conferences attracting people from all around the globe featuring expert speakers from the community and Microsoft. It’s because of our community involvement that we see the problems customers are facing in day in day out. It’s also because we’ve built such a large community that it’s a natural “next step” for us to help them break down the barriers in utlising Microsoft technologies. How to apply: If you’re interested in becoming a Collab365 MicroJobs seller then please send a mail to c365jobs@collaboris.com and let us know your area of expertise and also include a link to your LinkedIn Profile.1.8KViews2likes1CommentNew White Paper - Office 365 empowers Microsoft employees and enables Microsoft IT
As Microsoft has moved users, teams, and documents to the cloud with Office 365, the company's IT department has been transforming from server and systems management to organization empowerment. Formerly MSIT and now called Core Services Engineering (CSE), the teams are focused on delivering technology based services that enhance the company's ability to achieve our mission: to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. Software-as-a-service solutions like Office 365 delivered from the cloud are always up to date and constantly improving. Rather than spend time racking and stacking servers, deploying patches, and planning costly upgrade projects, CSE resources are freed to develop solutions to business problems and enable a productive and collaborative - yet secure and protected - workforce. To learn more about MSIT's transformation aided by Office 365, check out the new white paper: http://aka.ms/MSITservers2services3.8KViews5likes0CommentsEmail bounces back.
