SCIENCE SKILLS : SPREADSHEETS

What is a spreadsheet? Scientific inquiry generates data…and with the advent of computers, a lots of data. Spreadsheets are used to compile and statistically analyze that data. Ex: Microsoft Office Excel, Google Sheets organize data represent calculate

Tech Requirements This tutorial references a Mac running OS X and Google Sheets Log into Google Drive, open, save and share a Sheets file with your partner. If you use a PC, MS Office Excel, or another program, much will be the same or very similar. Look for command synonyms, different button locations, etc.

Build a Data Table • Copy a string of data from any source (your science lab notebook, MLB.com, bls.gov, ncdc.noaa.gov …) or make some up These 4 data points

Build a Data Table • Highlight spreadsheet cell B2; paste in the data. It will sort into separate cells

Build a Data Table • Repeat so you have a few sets of data in a table format • Title each row with an independent variable (IV)*, each column with a dependent variable (DV) DV IV *Note: spreadsheets can be finicky about recognizing numbers alone as variables – add a unit, use a word instead, etc

Worksheet Displays • You can reformat the text using the toolbar decimal point number format gridlines size color font etc

Worksheet Displays Reformat via drop down menus too • Wrap makes all your text visible in one cell • With Number you choose the format of your data

Doing Calculations • The program will do many math functions; here, the formula sums the total number of plants in column B. • Formulas start with the equal sign. Use * to multiply, /to divide, parentheses, math order of operations • More functions via the Σ tool : AVERAGE, MAX, MIN,)…

Graphing Data • Highlight the table; under insert choose chart.

Graphing Data choose a chart type Use customize to edit axes,, set min/max, colors, etc

Graphing Data Need to make additional changes?

Try This • Insert additional rows and columns into the table by clicking on the header(s) the number you highlight is the number that will be inserted • Write your own formulas i.e percent change = (((final – initial)/initial)*100) • Move a formula to fill adjacent cells by grabbing the bottom right corner of the formula cell (cursor will become a +) and dragging and holding to fill more cells with that same calculation.
