Hi Jonathan,

That sounds like a great solution – definitely a better deal in terms of getting the data in the hands of the students as quickly as possible. If Google Docs wasn’t blocked here in China (and if I wasn’t looking for a reason to play with the Meteor JS framework, I’d be right there with you.

Let me know how it goes!

I’ll be able to share the “results” spreadsheet with everyone, and they’d have instant access to the results, and a tool for manipulating the numbers. Thanks for this awesome idea, however! Definitely better than asking them to measure 50 of their friends’/peers’ shoe sizes (I’ve done that the past 2 years and you’re right: they’re just not as into it as you’d hope they’d be).
