What are the Benefits?

 

Collections help you store and categorise your quizzes and forms. You can create as many Collections as you need to organise your files.

You can edit, copy, and share a Collection with others, allowing you to easily collaborate on forms with others.

 

What is Microsoft Forms?

 

Microsoft Forms is an online tool that lets you create surveys, quizzes, and polls. You can collect responses and visualise your data in-real time. Forms can be used within Microsoft Teams and the data can be exported to Microsoft Excel for analysis. Forms is part of the Microsoft 365 family and is accessible via desktop, mobile and web devices, and all browsers.
