Week 5 Homework: Spreadsheets in the Classroom

Spreadsheets can be very useful in the classroom. Teachers can use a spreadsheet to calculate their students class averages in a very time efficient way. Students can use spreadsheets to make very impressive and professional looking charts and graphs. Also, students can spreadsheets to help with repetitive math assignments.

The website http://www.alicechristie.org/edtech/ss/#articles is a very impressive collection of several examples of how a K-12 teacher could use spreadsheets in the classroom. Dr. Alice Christie developed the web page. She is now a professor at Arizona State, but she taught in K-12 schools for 25 years previous to becoming a professor.
