  1. Access the Google Form. Typically, someone ( an organiser, teacher, or colleague) will provide you with a link to the form. Click on the link or paste it into your web browser's address bar to access the form.
  2. Answer all the questions on the form. Depending on the form's design, you might encounter different types of questions like multiple-choice, short answer, dropdown lists, checkboxes, etc.
  3. Some questions might be marked with an asterisk (*). These are mandatory questions, which means you must answer them before you can submit the form.
  4. If the form has multiple pages, navigate through them using the "Next" or "Back" buttons until you've answered all questions.
  5. Once you're ready, locate and click on the "Submit" button at the bottom of the form. This button might be labelled differently depending on the form's settings, but it's typically a button that indicates completion.
  6. After clicking "Submit," you might see a confirmation message or another page indicating that your responses have been recorded.
