The answer to this question depends on how you define "open."
Here's a breakdown:
- Anyone can view a Google Form: If a Google Form is shared publicly, anyone with the link can view it and even submit responses.
- Only people with a specific link can access a Google Form: If the form is shared with a specific link, only those who have that link can view or submit responses.
- Only specific people can edit a Google Form: Only the form's creator or people they've given edit access to can make changes to the form's structure, questions, or settings.
In summary:
- Anyone can view a publicly shared Google Form.
- Only those with a link can access a shared Google Form.
- Only the owner or those given permission can edit a Google Form.
Examples:
- You might share a survey publicly on your website, allowing anyone to fill it out.
- You might share a quiz with your students, giving them a unique link to access it.
- You might collaborate with a team on a feedback form, allowing everyone to edit and modify it.
Practical Insights:
- When sharing a Google Form, consider your intended audience and the level of access you want to provide.
- Use the sharing settings to control who can view, access, and edit your forms.
- You can also use Google Forms to create quizzes, surveys, and other interactive content.
