5 Notes about Correct Version of Excel 2016 Be sure and study the above sections of the syllabus carefully because you cannot just have any version of Excel, you must have one of the three versions of Excel 2016 as are listed in the above sections of the syllabus. It is not possible complete this class without the correct version. If you have trouble installing, you will have trouble shoot until you get the correct version installed. Some things consider: 1. You may have uninstall your previous version of Excel before installing the correct version. 2. You want make sure that the "bit" size of your computer matches the "bit" size for Excel If your computer is "32-bit", then the Excel must be "32-bit". If your computer is "64-bit", then the Excel must be "64- bit". NOTE: "64-bit" is much better than "32-bit", but either will work. 3. If you can't figure out how get the right version or you can't install it, you may have seek out help. You can phone Microsoft and perhaps they can help. 4. Highline's official policy for classes that use specific computer programs is as follows: if you do not have access your own personal computer with the correct version of the program, Highline offers computers that you can use in Building 30. The method for accessing the correct version of Excel 2016 in Building 30 is listed in the syllabus. Once you get the correct version of Excel, it will be amazing what we can do with it!!!!

Page 11 of 18

12 Student Outcomes (Detailed List): 1) Develop Effective and Efficient and solutions in Excel. i. Effective: 1. Define: Accomplish the stated goal. 2. Examples of tasks that accomplish the stated goal that students will learn in this class are: i. Students will be able use the COUNTIFS function or a PivotTable create a Frequency Distribution that calculates the correct number answers. ii. Students will be able use the correct Number Format that will display the same answer as the underlying number in the cell. ii. Efficient 1. Define: Accomplish the goal with the minimum number of resources and have the accomplished goal have the ability adapt future changes. 2. Examples of tasks that accomplish the goal with the minimum number of resources (where the resource is time create a solution) that students will learn in this class are: i. Students will be able use Mixed Cell References build a 12-month budgetary solution that allows you create a single formula and copy that formula through the range for an expense calculation, rather than a formula that uses only Relative and Absolute Cell References that would take 12 times longer create. ii. Students will be able use Power Query import multiple text files that you need consolidate in a single report, rather than using the Import External Data feature that requires that you import files one at a time. iii. Use keyboard shortcuts accomplish most tasks, rather than slower methods like using the Ribbon Tabs, Menus or scroll bars. 3. Examples of tasks that accomplish the stated goal and have the ability adapt future changes are: i. Students will learn not hard code formula inputs in formulas, which make updating difficult; inefficient and error prone formulas like =ROUND(A44*0.0765,2) will NEVER be taught. ii. Students will be able use a formula like =SUM(A1:A5) rather than =A1+A2+A3+A4+A5 so that when structural changes like inserting a new row above row four occur, the formula will calculate the correct answer (formula like =A1+A2+A3+A4+A5 would NOT calculate the correct answer if a new row four was inserted). iii. Students will be able use the Excel Table feature so that formulas, charts, PivotTable, Power Query output and PowerPivot solutions will all update when new records are added the Excel Table. 2) Use Microsoft Excel solve typical business related problems with an emphasis on: 1) Making effective and efficient numeric, logical and text calculations and 2) effectively and efficiently converting raw data in useful information. Page 12 of 18

13 3) Understanding the structure of an excel file as: Cells, Worksheets, Sheet Tabs and Workbooks 4) Using keyboard shortcuts s accomplish tasks quickly 5) Understand Data Analysis and Business Intelligence terms and use data analysis concepts create useful information from raw data: i. Data Analysis = Convert Raw Data in Useful Information for Decision Makers ii. Business Intelligence = Convert Raw Data in Useful/Actionable Information (often times in the form of a Dashboard) for Decision Makers in a Business Situation iii. Raw Data = data in its smallest form that allows Excel Data Analysis features and Excel data analysis techniques work. iv. Proper Data Set = Proper Table Format = Field Names in first row and Records in rows v. Clean Raw Data = Remove unwanted charters, add needed characters, split data apart in desired data, join data gether get desired data, and other cleaning goals. vi. Transform Data Sets = 1) filter, combine, merge, append or unpivot data sets, and 2) add, remove or filter columns in data sets, and 3) other data transformational goals vii. Import Data = import data from external sources (single or multiple sources) in Excel or Power Pivot s Columnar Database or Power BI Deskp; optimally, the import will allow refreshes so that when source data changes the report output resulting from the import action will update reflecting the changes in the source data. viii. Create useful information for decision makers 6) Understand and use Proper Data Sets, correct Data Types and Alignment leverage Excel s full capabilities. Without clean raw data in a proper data set, most of Excel s Data Analysis features will not work. 7) Understand and Utilize Number Formatting as Façade: i. Most important concept: Number Formatting displays numbers on the surface of the spreadsheet that can be different than the underlying number 8) Use Style Formatting, Number Formatting and Page Setup present information in an effect way. 9) Create Effective and Efficient Formulas that can make numeric, logical and text calculations and perform data analysis, including the following formula related pics: i. Understanding the following Formula Types: 1. Number Formulas. 2. Text formulas. 3. Logical formulas 4. Lookup formulas 5. Array formulas ii.

Table Formula Nomenclature (Structured Reference) vii. Using Assumption Tables (Formula Input Area) clearly demonstrate the assumptions of a spreadsheet model. viii. Employ Excel's Golden Rule in every solution created: 1. If a formula input can change, put it in a cell and refer it in the formula with a cell reference. 2. If a formula input will not change, you can type it in a formula. 3. Always label your formula inputs so that the formula input can be clearly undersod by any user of the spreadsheet solution; by doing this we properly document the spreadsheet solution (model). ix. Use what-if analysis ols such as: Scenario Manager and Goal Seek x. Utilize four steps for finding Formula Errors: 1. Look at Formula, Look at Range Finder 2. Evaluate Formula 3. Formula Inputs Correct? 4. Raw Data clean? xi.
