Forms can be launched to any email address.  If you want the recipient to use a rubric to complete the form, then you must email the rubric (as a Word document, copy and pasted into an email, etc.) to them separately. 

Forms can also be launched to LiveText members.  If you want the LiveText member to use a rubric to complete the form, then you can create the rubric within a LiveText document and share it with them so that it appears in their LiveText Materials Inbox. 

This is how the LiveText forms work:

As each form is completed, the information is automatically entered into a dataset housed within the account that launched the form (Admin account, faculty account, LiveText administrator account, etc.), and matched with the information LiveText already knows about the person(s) who received the form.  

Form reports generated from within LiveText do not automatically give you mathematical data, but form data can be exported into Microsoft Excel to be analyzed and further reported in charts, graphs, etc. 

This is how we use the LiveText form data we collect:

After the form(s) close(s) the LiveText coordinator exports the data into Excel where it is aggregated as Unit data and disaggregated by division, degrees, majors, etc. for further examination.  Means and percentages are recorded, graphed, reported and shared with the appropriate School of Education members by the LiveText coordinator.

Each program coordinator examines the data relevant to his or her division and creates a summary report.  The summary reports are submitted to the School of Education Dean, who creates a Unit report based on this data analysis.  All data and reports are also examined by the NCATE coordinator and committee members who make program and unit recommendations based on the data. 

These data driven recommendations are presented to the appropriate committees for discussion and ultimately program improvements are made based on the information you supply to us when you complete your electronic form(s).
