Fun with Data

I really enjoyed these assignments and I can see where you would use them in the classroom. I had never worked with spreadsheets before and I learned new things with each assignment. Each time I found a simpler way or shortcut to calculate formulas. I found out that many older teachers still use this as a way to calculate grades but there are many grade programs which I am sure use spreadsheets in the program.

Online quiz

I thought the google docs assessment form assignment was great this is definitely one assignment that I will use again in my classes. I really think however we should have allowed everyone to look at our quiz.

Rubistar assessment

Here is my Rubric that created for a writing assignment for a unit on the Revolutionary War. The student would be writing a persausive essay to the King of England much like Thomas Paine did. The link to the rubric is below
