App   Surveys - Google Forms Free

Google Forms as a tool has probably been one of the single most important web based developments to support how I work in the classroom over the last few years. Whilst pretty simple to use, the power of the Google Form is in its flexibility in the many different ways it can be used.

I was recently asked how I go about making my Google Forms and to that end, I’ve made the screencast below to support anyone wanting to learn how to make a Google Form.

App   Data sets - Fake Identity Generator Free

What can I use the Fake Name Generator identities for?

Thousands of individuals, companies, and government organizations have found useful and creative things to do with the Fake Name Generator. Here are a few examples:

  • Quality test data can be hard to come by, especially with laws (such as HIPAA) preventing use of real data. Read more onthe dangers of testing with real data.
  • Many websites, such message boards, are poorly designed, making it difficult for visitors from foreign countries to sign up for accounts. Using fake information, you can easily fill out the sign up forms and log in to the site.
  • Use fake information when filling out forms to avoid giving out personal information.
  • Generate a false identity to use as your pseudonym on the internet. This allows you to keep your real life and your internet life separate.
  • Get ideas for names to use for characters in a book or story.
  • Generated credit cards can be used to test basic client-/server-side validation techniques without accidently processing a real card.
  • Generated national identity numbers can be used to test basic client-/server-side validation techniques without risking disclosure of real information.
