Excel

Excel

In this assignment I imported data into an Excel spreadsheet then manipulated and analyzed the data using the formulas and options available in Excel. I also translated some of the data into graphs and used these graphs to write potential critical thinking questions for students. Although I previously had much experience with Excel, I had never used the graph and chart functions, and was surprised to find how easy they were to utilize. I will definitely use Excel for grading and charting class averages at the very least, but it will also be useful in creating charts and pictures from data for math story problems. I also think it would be useful for my statistics students to practice using formulas in Excel and seeing what the numbers really mean in a large dataset.
