The Dialog Launcher allows you to open up a dialog box that contains more features of a group. Within the Groups there are different types of Controls that we can use to manipulate our spreadsheets. Like Word’s Ribbon, Excel’s Ribbon also has 7 Tabs. Like the Word 2007 video where I talked about the Ribbon, Excel 2007 has the Ribbon as well. Excel can now take advantage of newer computers that have dual processing chips and multithreading by splitting the processing up for quicker results. But Excel now makes those charts easier to create and better looking as well.Įxcel has been tuned-up so to speak under the hood to allow for bigger spreadsheets, up to 1 million rows and up to 16,000 columns. Excel 2007 pretty much does the same things it always has done, like number crunching and displaying many types of charts such as bar and pie charts. This work is done in the context of Earth's interior layers.In this video we’ll take a brief tour of Excel 2007. Part III involves entering a formula using cell names, learning to fill down, and discovering how relative and absolute cell names work. In Part II, students work with several different types of charts (column, bar, pie, and triangle charts) and use tables and charts to answer questions about Earth's interior. Part I introduces the capability of a spreadsheet to handle a large dataset containing worldwide earthquake epicenters from October 2011 and plots a scatter chart of these data, which is equivalent to a map. The exercise is divided into three parts. Student materials for this exercise include a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet with marked cells and several charts and the instruction sheet (MS Word). Today, most people use computer spreadsheets in the form of software such as Microsoft Excel™, but the basic idea remains the same. At that time, a spreadsheet was a piece of paper with ruled lines forming rows and columns where data could be written in. In fact, the original use of the word "computer" was to describe a person whose job was doing arithmetic. Before the days of computers, people had to record data and perform calculations by hand. And of course, scientists use graphs to summarize and convey information and to support hypotheses. News reports often include graphs that you must understand in order to follow an argument. You may track your finances, follow statistics for your favorite sport, watch stock market trends, or pay attention to weather records such as temperature and precipitation.
Think about the many sets of data you may encounter in your daily activities.
