Google Forms has changed a bit. You can no longer just copy the responder link. You have to Publish first, otherwise no one can respond. #EduSky #GoogleEdu #EdTech
A screenshot of a Google Forms form in preview mode. The form is titled "My Awesome Form" and has a single required field labeled "Name." The form is currently not accepting responses, as indicated by a message at the top. A screenshot of the Google Forms publish form screen. It shows the current responder settings as "Anyone with the link" and indicates that no one will be notified when the form is published. The screen includes "Dismiss" and "Publish" buttons.

A 1913 cartoon, a New Year's toast, and a reflection on resilience. What history's lessons can teach us about today. forgottenfiles.substack.com/p/historys-t...
A vintage cartoon from _Puck_ magazine, published on December 31, 1913. It depicts Uncle Sam sitting in a cozy parlor, being offered two bottles by the symbolic figure of the New Year, portrayed as a young boy wearing a "1914" sash. The bottles are labeled "Hope" and "Fear," inviting Uncle Sam to make a choice. The scene is warmly lit by a decorative hanging lamp, and Uncle Sam appears pensive, considering his options. A discarded top hat lies on the floor beside him.
