Online form building tool. It will store/compile your data take payment and much more. Although there is a monthly fee for a subscription, there is an option for a one month free trial that will allow you to build a few forms for free.

Actually, the free option is not a trial. You can have a free account that will allow up to 3 forms and 3 reports at the same time. There is no monthly cost for the free level account and there is no trial period. This is an example of a "freemium" service that offers a totally free basic service with the opportunity to upgrade to a subscription level premium account with additional features or capacity for a monthly fee.

How to Insert Videos Into Google Forms via Free Technology for Teachers http://www.freetech4teachers.com/

A great collection of posts for teachers on the many valuable uses of google forms.

Great article especially for those just beginning to incorporate Google Drive

Agreed! Thanks Dorie. Also, with Google Docs integration in Haiku, students can "turn in" google docs to a Haiku assignment. All of the sharing is then handled automatically, and you, as the teacher, can launch, comment, and annotate the students work from within Haiku. This makes it very convenient! Likewise, if you add a google doc to a content block in Haiku, it will automatically be shared with the students in that Haiku class. When you add it, you may choose whether to grant viewing, commenting, or editing permissions on the doc to the students in the class. Then students can launch that document directly from your Haiku class. Google Docs + Haiku makes managing assignments in Google Docs/Drive much easier.

One other thought: Bypassing Haiku for a minute, I have also read about teachers using a google form to "collect" assignments in Google Drive. Students "turn in" their assignments by completing a short form with their name and a title and description of the assignment. Then they paste the document url into the form. That way, the teacher has a spreadsheet with each student's name and a direct link to their assignment. So, the teacher can go line by line through the spreadsheet and grade and annotate each student's assignment. I thought this was a clever solution.

Proofread for Project Gutenberg; an excellent "real world" project for English students. Help preserve literature in digital form.

In this student-created Prezi, the presentation takes the form of a traditional plot diagram.  This is an excellent example of how Prezi turns the traditional slide presentation on its head.  This is a powerful tool for students to demonstrate their understanding.
