The past few class periods, we have been working on an Action Research project. We have been taking data from a spreadsheet and making calculations based upon gender and student classification. We now are typing a research paper based upon our findings. We include tables and charts to help explain our results and to help give a mental image of the gender and classification of students. We just copied and pasted the charts from our excel project. Some of the excel formulas consisted of average, sorting function, and table formatting. We also had to format our paper in the style of APA. The teaching standard this goes with is 2d.
-provide students with multiple and varied formative and summative assessments aligned with content and technology standards and use resulting data to inform learning and teaching-
Excel can help students understand content, like math formulas, that are hard to explain in class. They can see it work for themselves as they are doing.
