What is Microsoft Forms?

Easily create surveys to collect customer feedback, measure employee satisfaction, and organize team events. Microsoft Forms is simple to use, works on any web browser, and comes with themes and question branching so you won't have to do a lot of work to get to a great survey. Quickly create quizzes to measure student knowledge, evaluate class progress, and focus on topics that need improvement. Microsoft Forms lets you assign points for automatic grading and give explanations for further instruction, so quizzing students is easier than ever. Find out what the class thinks of your trip idea, where the team wants to meet, or how presentation attendees feel.
