EdificationMembersdataGridview may be it should be EdificationMembersDataGridview, you typed small letter d instead of capital letter D.

In your Form1.cs declare some global variables depending upon the inputs you have.
public static string Form1TextBox1 = "";
public static string Form1TextBox2 = "";
public static string Form1TextBox3 = "";
On button click of form1
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Form1TextBox1 = textBox1.Text;
Form1TextBox2 = textBox2.Text;
Form1TextBox3 = textBox3.Text;

Form2 frm2 = new Form2();
frm2.Show();
}
Inside Form2.cs
private void Form2_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string firstColum = Form1.Form1TextBox1;
string secondColum = Form1.Form1TextBox2;
string thirdColum=Form1.Form1TextBox3 ;
string[] row = { firstColum, secondColum,thirdColum};
YourDataGrid.Rows.Add(row);
}
