Topic 3 Spreadsheets and Modelling Lesson 1 Introducing the Unit

What are we learning today? We are learning to use spreadsheet models to answer what if…? questions What I’m looking for using spreadsheet features to find the answers rather than working them out ourselves This is because spreadsheet models can be used to analyse data in complicated ways so that we can find the answers to questions

Your Task Worksheet Answer the questions about the financial model of a zoo

Terminology Recap Numeric data Text labels Columns (letters) A worksheet Text labels Rows (numbers) Each cell has a unique cell reference e.g. D13 Column D Row 13

Formula Start with = then create formula When you press Enter, the formula will automatically be calculated. The formula can also be viewed and edited here in the formula bar

By dragging the fill handle,you can copy and paste the formula into other cells What formula should have been generated in cell E7? The data can be sorted in alphabetical or numerical order – using the AZ icons The data can be displayed on a chart using the Chart Wizard icon C7*D7

What is a model? (In ICT terms!) Tool that enables you to put different data into a system and look at the outcomes it produces Tool you can use to ask ‘what if…’ questions by changing variable or formulae

Why use a spreadsheet? Speed Accuracy Automatic calculations Data can be changed easily

In this unit you will learn: To use a spreadsheet to generate models To ask questions of the models in order to analyse and present data To use techniques to generate more effective models To understand the relationship between input and output values in a model To discuss other types of modelling that can be used to simulate different events
