MS Excel

                

          In excel, you need to learn also how to use the Command Icons and Dialog Boxes. To apply a command, just click the icon. An arrownext to icon means that there are other options available. Click the arrow to display the options. Selected command is the highlighted command. The arrow next to the Group name is the Dialog Box launcher. Click it to display the Dialog Box. A Dialog Box is an on-screen form that you fill up to tell MS Excel how to complete a command. Here is the example.

I learned also about working with Mini Toolbar and Context Menus. When you right click on the text, a context menu will appear. You can use the mini toolbar and context menu to format text without going to the Home tab.

          In order to apply what we have learned in excel, Ma’am Angie instructed us to group ourselves into four. We were assigned to make an instructional material through excel. The first two groups were assigned to translate some English words to Filipino. The English words are given already and they have to translate them in Filipino. They have the choice to make it right or wrong for the remarks. The remark is different because it will say popular expressions today like boom panes, awtsu, aral-aral din pag may time, hanep, etc. The remarks depend if you get the right or wrong translation. For me, that was fun.

            

          For our group, we were assigned to make an instructional material for a Diagnostic test. Our group provides blanks before each question. The student is going to write his/her answer on the blank provided before the question. On the right side is the score. Once the student answers the question, it will automatically say (the score) whether the answer is right or wrong. It will automatically appear. But during the examination, you should hide the score part. Only the teacher should know about it. Here is what the group did.

          If the answer is right, the score will change. The right answer display 1 point and it became green and if the answer is wrong it will remain as zero and the color (red) will not change. And the good thing about this, it will automatically total the score.

          Microsoft excel is very useful and is a quick way to do some works in computer. I am looking forward to learn more about microsoft excel
