The quiz feature is amazing! I’m turning articles and YouTube videos and text notes for Econ into Google form quizzes, and then giving them formative check for understanding quizzes. It’s such a time saver! And then for a graded quiz I’m going to import questions from all the formative quizzes. Easy peasy.
