Spreadsheet from my previous understanding was a software program used to store information such as phone numbers or basically organizing personal information. Spreadsheet now I understand can be used to add formulas to retrieve medians and modes from numerical data. I also learned that graphs and visual models can be added inside a Spreadsheet document to simulate the numerical data for viewers to see a relatable image to the data.
For my classroom, I could use Spreadsheet to implement a gradebook that would store assessment scores from the beginning, middle, and end of the year. I could use the average formula to average the scores and compare student growth. I would also insert a graph to simulate the scores over a period of an academic school year.
For students, Spreadsheet would be valuable for drill and practice functions. Students could drill and practice with math and subtraction facts, multiplication facts, and division problems. Students can also use the what if functions for higher level problems. Spreadsheet can also be used for math assessments.Teachers can premake an assessment in Spreadsheet that includes the formulas. The student can answer the various mathematical questions and retrieve immediate feedback if the answer is incorrect. Spreadsheet provides teachers and students with accessibility to organize numerical data.
