This class is taught in a "see it" then "try it together" then "try it alone" format. I will walk the students through how to create charts in Excel, showing them examples on my screen. Then, I will ask students to follow along with examples, leading them through the process while they complete it on their spreadsheets. Finally, I will give students an example to try independently. The class will cover the basic functions of Excel, such as entering data, creating charts, and personalizing those charts.
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to create basic charts and figures in Excel from data. Students will be able to enter a simple data set into Excel and produce an appropriate visual representation of that data.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Excel is a valuable skill for students, and many jobs look for potential employees with Excel capabilities. I used Excel every day in my university classes, and I had to waste a lot of time learning basic functions in the program because I had never used it before. I want to offer students an opportunity to get a head start on utilizing Excel and become familiar with the program.Reviews
