Flubaroo – Auto-graded Google Form Quizzes

Flubaroo is a script that can be added to any quiz you generate in google forms. The script allows educators to set up an answer key by filling in the quiz themselves, and then auto-grade the assignment and email students their individual grades.

While this may be a bit complicated at first, the steps outlined in their guide are very detailed. Please let me know if you have any questions and I will be glad to schedule some time to see you.
