Excel 3: Three (More) Essential Excel Techniques to Understanding Your Data
|
|
This session, designed for all educators and education administrators, teaches you three powerful techniques for understanding your student data. You do a lot of work for your students. What are you getting for all your effort? These three Excel techniques help you make decisions about instruction, programs, and student outcomes.
|
|
Time: 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. OR 2:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.
|
Using real student data, we’ll start by reviewing the powerful and efficient techniques from the first two sessions.
|
|
|
|
- named cells and ranges
- countif / countifs
- sumproduct
- averageif / averageifs
|
- simple data tables
- pull-down menus
- basic data clean up
|
|
|
Then, in this session, we’ll look at three more Excel techniques help you make decisions about instruction, programs, and student outcomes:
|
- maximum, minimum, median, midpoint, and threshold values
- standard deviation and correlation (Yes, a little bit of stats, but I’ll make it easy to understand!)
- graphs: scatter, line, and bar graphs (and when to use each), and adding trend lines
|
And if we have time...we’ll explore using absolute references to make moving formulas easier, combining formulas, and adding text to numerical results

New Digital Learning Coach for REC-1
|
|
|
My name is Nan Lasster. I am the new Digital Learning Coach for this area through the
State Technology Initiative with REC-1. I will be assisting your teachers and staff faculty
in learning to utilize a variety of technological tools to support student learning over the
next few months. I will offer in-person and virtual coaching, plus resources.
In the next few days, I will be sending out a questionnaire to the superintendents and
principals to determine your needs in order to make my training sessions as helpful as
possible.
I look forward to working with you all.
|
|
As the Digital Learning Coach, Nan will be responsible for planning, organizing, and providing site-based and virtual training and leadership in the area of technology integration in schools and classrooms across the REC-1 region and beyond. She will also work to further student, teacher, and administrator use and understanding of integrating technology tools and strategies to enhance student learning and increase student engagement.
