You can create a quiz assignment in Classroom where students complete and submit a Google Forms quiz. You can assign the quiz assignment to one or more classes or to individual students, schedule it to post later, add a due date and time, and add attachments.
Google Forms can automatically grade the quiz and you can import the grades into Classroom. Students can see their grades immediately or after you review their answers. You can also lock a quiz on Chromebooks managed by your school.

Step 2: Set up your quiz in Google Forms
When you create a quiz assignment, Classroom creates a blank quiz using Google Forms and attaches the form to the assignment.
In the assignment, click the Forms quiz attachment and set up your quiz. You can let students see their grade immediately after they submit their answers. If you change the name of the quiz in Google Drive, the name is updated in Classroom.
For details, go to Create & grade quizzes with Google Forms.
If students are using Chromebooks managed by your school, you can lock the Chromebook while they take a quiz. When the Chromebook is locked, students can’t open other browser tabs. You’ll get an email if a student exits the Forms quiz and then reopens it. Unmanaged devices can’t access the Forms quiz.
Accessibility features
Students can use the following accessibility features when a Chromebook is locked:
- ChromeVox (text-to-speech)

Import quiz grades from Forms to Classroom
To import grades:
- The quiz must be the only attachment on the assignment.
- Students are limited to one response and must be in the same domain as the teacher.
- The form must collect student email addresses.
If you change any of these settings or edit the assignment after you save or post it, you might not be able to import grades.
Tip: If you attach a form as a link in Classroom, you can't import student grades.
Import quiz gradesWhen you import grades, all grades are imported. You can’t select some grades to import. When you import the grades, the import overrides any current grades for the assignment. Therefore, if the Forms quiz is only one part of an assignment, import the quiz grades first.
To import grades:
-
Go to classroom.google.com and click Sign In.
Sign in with your Google Account. For example, [email protected] or [email protected]. Learn more.
- Click a classClasswork.
- Click the assignment with the quizView Assignment.
- On the Student Work page, click Import Grades.
Note: If you don’t see Import grades, your form wasn’t set up as a quiz or you didn’t turn on Grade importing when you created the assignment.
- Click Import.
Classroom enters grades for each student. If you didn’t assign points, the assignment is labeled ungraded.
