Find/ Replace
When finding and replacing items in excel I learned how confusing this process could be. I first replaced all males and females but then quickly learned that I needed to replace females before males because it would replace half the word female to fe1. There is probably an easier way to do this but I could not figure out how to do it. I then replaced all personality types with letters and that became very confusing and overwhelming. I lastly replaced teaching/nonteaching and that was much easier. I then learned that the find and replace tool was best used for small comparisons. I think this tool would be great for students to compare test scores with out having to see other student's names. I think that this would also allow proffessionals to look at assessment data and looking for weaknesses and stregnths. The standards reached are standard 4 Promote and Model Digital Citienship and Responsibility because I can model safe, legal, and ethical use of digital technology by keeping names confidential. Also Standard 5 Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership because professionals and anaylze and interprete data without the release of names and so on. Evaluate and interpreting data for professional growth is all part of Excel data analysis.
