I work in excel often, but every time i open excel and I start a project I seem to always learn something new. This week we had to import the data and create visual representations based on the data in excel. Although I have done importing, mean, median, mode, and charts in excel before I was able to learn some new ways of going about doing them. I thoroughly enjoy excel for the main fact that you can always learn something new and you can always figure out a new way to use it. The only thing I’d say I did not like about the excel assignment is that we are not really using excel to its fullest potential, and a larger project maybe based on grades or something applicable to teachers may have been more appropriate of an assignment in my opinion.
Personally after looking at peoples blogs throughout the semester I would like to spend more time in excel which was what I originally thought this class would do. Excel has many applications and is constantly changing and being made better by Microsoft. Excel is probably one of the most useful programs I have ever used and by far one of the ones you are likely to use most in your everyday life. I personally use excel for budgeting, future expectations of income, dividing expenses among people and as an accounting major I have had to use it in all my internships thus far.
Since I have mentioned that I will not be a teacher in the future I feel that I will touch on my goals of using this class in the future. Some of the items learned in both power point and excel I can see myself using in the future for presentations, budgets, and justification to people within a presentation. As a student I think i will continue using social media to see what the latest trends are in technology to make sure that I am an early adapter and understand the technologies to be better prepared for my job.
