Chapter 6 Spreadsheets
Spreadsheets are a quintessential tool for teachers. Not only does it make calculating grades simple and easy it also makes it easier to see trends in student’s work and errors. Spreadsheets have become a central part of our society and students would at a disadvantage not know how to properly utilize them. Spreadsheets software such as excel will also allow students to transform mathematical data into visual graphs and charts. This will allow for the visual learners to gain an understanding of the information with great ease.
I would find the use for spreadsheets in calculating grades, tracking attendance, calculating trends, consumption of art supplies, and many other common teacher tasks.
It just leaves the question of when to use a spreadsheet and when is it just an extra step.
