Questionnaires Alfons Cornella on videos

An easy alternative that is easy to implement ... develop questionnaires based on YouTube videos. Has many limitations such as not recognizing some characters (initial question, some accents, the letter "ñ "...)
Moreover, the questionnaires themselves are elementary. I see education more interesting questions that can make the answers to these questions. Indeed, these responses are received by email.
