At the last post about creating online quizzes with Google Docs, I showed you the steps to create online quizzes. In this post, I will guide you to share the quizzes you created and then invite others to take quizzes.

As soon as you’re done and your quiz form has been saved, you can go ahead and close this window. Your form will feed into a spreadsheet in Google Docs. The spreadsheet is private by default, even though your form is public.

If you wish, you can share the quiz spreadsheet with others or publish it, but the choice is yours. You can also go in and manually add data to your spreadsheet without having to rely on the form or use the data to make charts. About sharing quiz spreadsheet online to let other take the quiz, there are 2 ways: embed the quizzes to blogs or websites and Email others the quizzes.

Embed the quizzes to your blogs or website

You can embed the quizzes on your blogs or Web site and let people take the quiz in that way.

Simply click More actions which is on the upper right corner, and then select Embed.

After you open the Embed dialog, please copy the codes and then paste into your blog post or website.

If you want to share the quiz on your blog, just log in your blog and paste the code to the post you want to embed under the HTML mode.

If you want to embed the quiz on Website, just paste the page to the web page. By default, the quiz you create is 760*780, you can also resize the embed area by modifying the number of width and height.

Email others the quizzes and invite them to take quizzes

The Email this form button lets you email the quiz to specified persons. You can input the email addresses one by one with commas spaced, or you also can choose the email from your contacts.

After that, click Send to send the quiz invitation to these users to invite them take the quiz. Then, the quiz-takers can view and take the quiz in their E-mail address or by clicking the quiz link.

Also, you can send the quiz link directly to others with the link at the bottom of the page. And then send the link to others.

By clicking “Edit confirmation”, it will let you edit the confirmation information which appears after quiz-taker finish the quiz.
