Create a worksheet with form (Intermediate level)

As an educator you will find that using forms in questionnaires, worksheets and quizzes will help you save time when creating these documents. Forms are only useful if the documents are going to be completed using the computer. You will use Microsoft Word to create these forms-based documents.

By the end of this task you could achieve the following outcomes:

- Type a worksheet, questionnaire, quizz
- Create form objects in a document like checkboxes and drop down menus
- Protect your form
- Conduct a spell check
- Save the document

Create your own forms-based document - one which you will find useful. Alternatively, follow this example. To do so you would typically work through the following steps:

1.	Start Microsoft Word. See how »
