Below, we will walk you through the steps of converting a Google Doc into a Google Form quiz without requiring any plugins.

Step 1: Prepare Your Google Doc Quiz

Before you convert your Google Doc into a Google Form, ensure that your quiz is properly formatted. Follow these simple tips:

1. Ensure that each question is clearly marked (numbering helps).
2. If you’re using multiple-choice questions, list the options below the question.
3. For short answer or paragraph questions, clearly indicate spaces for responses.

Step 2: Use Formswrite to Create the Quiz

While Formswrite doesn't require any plugin installation, it's a helpful tool for those looking to copy questions from a Google Doc directly into a Google Form quiz.

1. Open your **Google Doc **with the quiz.
2. Use **Formswrite **(which operates within Google Docs) to highlight the questions and answers you want to convert as a Google Form.
3. Paste these highlighted sections into the Google Form by copying and pasting each question, ensuring the format is correctly maintained.

Step 3: Add Question Types and Customize

Now that your questions are in Google Forms, it’s time to fine-tune the form:

1. Select the type of question for each entry (multiple choice, short answer, dropdown, etc.).
2. For multiple-choice questions, simply add the options you copied from your Google Doc.
3. Customize your quiz by adding sections, titles, and descriptions if needed.
4. For quizzes with auto-grading, mark the correct answers by enabling the quiz option under **Settings **> **Quizzes **> **Make this a quiz **.

Step 4: Adjust Quiz Settings

Before you send out your quiz, adjust the form's settings to better align with your needs:

1. **General Settings **: Choose if respondents can edit after submitting.
2. **Presentation Settings **: Opt to shuffle questions or display a progress bar.
3. **Quiz Settings **: Enable automatic grading if desired.

Step 5: Test Your Form

Before distributing your quiz, be sure to test it out to make sure everything works as expected. Fill out the form yourself to check for any errors or formatting issues. You can also preview the quiz by clicking on the eye icon in the upper-right corner.

Step 6: Distribute Your Google Form Quiz

Once everything is in order, it’s time to distribute your quiz. You can share the form via email, a direct link, or even embed it on a website.
