Working with the Spreadsheet The spreadsheet is where the magic happens. It is also the tricky part. We will make our quiz self-grading. Follow my steps. Try to understand the formulae.
Basic Excel Formulas = =A1 =A1+A2 This starts all formulas. This copies the cell A1. A is the column. 1 is the row. A1 is the specific cell. If you write this into the B1 cell, it will copy whatever is in A1. This says to add A1 and A2 together..
Formula 1 =“StudentAnswers”!A1 This formula copies a cell from another worksheet. “StudentAnswers” is the sheet name ! means it is a different sheet A1 is the specific cell
Formula 2 =IF(“FormResponses"!A1=“Answers"!$A$1,1,0) To check if the student answer matches the correct answer. Returns 1 or 0. IF sets up a conditional formula “FormResponses”!A1 looks at the FormResponses Sheet, cell A1. = shows what to compare “FormResponses”!A1 to “Answers”!$A$1 is the correct answer $ means that if this formula is pasted into another cell, the letter or number after the $ will not change 1,0 is the response of the computer. 1 means the answers are the same. 0 means the answers are different.
Formula 3 =SUM(A1:Z1) To find the total points earned on this quiz. SUM means sum or addition A1:Z1 is the range of cells being added, similar to A1+B1+C1…
Formula 4 =H3/5*100 To find the total percentage a student earned H3 is the cell with the SUM formula / means divided by 5 means the total number of questions * means multiplacation (x) 100 is used to give a percentage
Formula 5 =AVERAGE($A$1:$A$50) To find the class average AVERAGE means average of scores $A$1:$A$50 represents a single column of class percentages A1 is the first student’s percentage A50 is the last student’s percentage You can use this formula after the PERCENT column.
