Microsoft excel for students11/7/2023 ![]() ![]() The book is clear and really easy to understand. Reviewed by Angel Escalona, Adjunct Professor, Middlesex Community College on 11/21/22 It would be better to have more practice and assessment problems in each chapter to for instructors to assign them as homework or self-practice activities. ![]() This is a good book for Excel beginners, particularly suitable for teaching Excel in a general elective course or business major. I didn't find anything relevant to this topic. In the pdf version, font sizes of some figures are too small and the figure styles are not very consistent. The subheadings "Printing" and "Preparing to Print" are not self-explanatory before reading the content. Even though your current logic of splitting them makes sense, it makes the "Print" and "Cell reference" topics less easier to be used as independent subunits. I would also suggest covering all the Print topic together instead of splitting into different chapters. I would suggest covering absolute reference and relative reference together instead of splitting them. Sometimes the font sizes and spacing are not consistent or appealing for readers. The online version is easy to ready, but the pdf version can be improved. I suggest a consistent subheading and maybe a more self-explanatory subheading for the assessment activities. The assessment activities are called "scored assessment" in some chapters and "chapter scored" in other chapters. But there is an inconsistency in the headings. I suggest the author clarify the relationship between Excel 2019 and Excel 365 to avoid confusion for beginners since Excel 365 also appear in the texts. The title indicates the book for Excel 2019. But few figures missed the captions and some figures used very small font sizes thus difficult to verify the information. This book doesn't have any science or engineering examples nor topics used frequently in scientific data analysis via Excel such as x-y scatter chart, logical functions (AND, OR, NOT), nested IF statement, functions like SUMPRODUCT, IFS, MATCH, INDEX, etc. The examples and practice problems are largely related to financial and career decision making. It also includes instructions for Mac user, which is very useful for students using Mac. This book is comprehensive for Excel beginners from non-STEM major. Reviewed by Xinyu Zhang, Teaching Assistant Professor, West Virginia University on 5/5/23 Journalism, Media Studies & Communications +.I hope this makes sense! It's just so I can have everything there at a quick glance. The hard part that is confusing me is removal or addition of students, so I can't just copy/paste like normal, the sheet would need to help me find the root name & match that up. Is there a good way to do this so I can just copy/paste the names, polls, and chats each day & have just the poll and chat data match up with the name in the A column? I'd like to have the student name on just once. Sometimes I get new students or lose students, so I'd like any new names to automatically be added when a new list is added, along with their data. Then two columns of data that I can copy/paste in somehow. ![]() I'd like to set it up similar to what I have below, for an example. It has the student name and then two of the many columns I'd like to use - one is the number of chat responses, the other is the number of poll responses. I am looking for an efficient way of running attendance using the bigbluebutton csv report that is generated for us. I work at an online school and have well over 200 students. ![]()
