Download the TableauLab file and look over the fields. These are the fields from the FoodiesNW file you’ll use for your individual dashboard project. I created this file by selecting all fields in all the files in Access, so there are duplicates. I also added some calculations fields to the file:
Ext Gross is the extension of price X quantity; Ext Net is the extension of price X quantity, net of discount
Open Tableau and connect to Excel data. Select the TableauLab file and drag the file to the location that says Drag Files Here. Select Extract in the upper right so that Tableau will make a copy of your data. Click on the tab at the bottom that says Sheet1 to begin your first visualization.
How much is your total sales for the past 3 years?
Move the ExtNet field to the center of the sheet (similar to the values area in a pivot table). Then move it to the Rows and Columns shelves to see what happens. Then click on the first icon in the show me area – it looks like a worksheet. That icon turns your graph back into a tabular format and moves the ExtNet field over to the Marks section and lables it as text.
SHEET 1: In which time period did you sell most?
Move the Order Date field to the Rows shelf and then to the Columns shelf. Click on various graph types on the right hand side to see what happens, and then return to a tabular format.
**To create a vertical bar chart, you may need to use the Swap Rows and Columns icon in the toolbar – it has a curved arrow.
**You can sort the fields in a graph from high to low, low to high, and back to the starting position, by clicking on the icon right next to the Ext Net label on your graph
In which quarter did you sell most? Month?
Click on the drop down menu on the Order Date field in the Columns shelf and select Quarter and then Month. View this data in charts and tabular format. Change it to a line graph.

Now move a second copy of the Order Date field to the Columns shelf, so that you have years first, and then quarters or months. Return to a bar graph. Does this change your perspective on yearly sales?
** Now filter out dates so that your range ends at the end of the last quarter, on 3/31/18 by moving a copy of the Order Date field to the Filters area and selecting Range of dates.
Double click on Sheet 1 and change its name to Sales by Quarter. Notice that the title above the graph changes too.
SHEET 2: Which product categories and products have you sold most of?
Click on the symbol next to the Sheet 1 tab to add another sheet. Move the Ext Net field to the Label icon in the Marks section. Then move Category Name to the Rows Shelf. Which is the most popular category?
How has that changed over the quarters? Filter the Order Dates so they end at 3/31/18. Move Order Date to the Columns shelf and select Quarter. Select the .

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
1. MANAGEMENT OF DATABASE INFORMATION
SYSTEM
Quering database
Queries are the fastest way to search for information in a database. A query is a database feature
that enables the user to display records as well to perform calculations on fields from one or
multiple tables.
You can analyze a table or tables by using:-
1. Select query or
2. An action query
Action query:-These are queries that are used to make changes in many records at once. They are
mostly used to delete, update, add a group of records from one table to another, or create a new
table from another table.
Types of action query in Microsoft Access are:-
1. Update-update data in a table.
2. Append query-add data in a table from one or more tables.
3. Make table Query-Creates a new table from a dynaset
4. Delete query-Delete specified records from one or more tables.
Select query
Is a type of query used for searching and analyzing data in one or more tables. It lets the user
specify the search criteria and the records that meet those criteria displayed in a dynaset or
analyzed depending on the user requirement.
Creating a selectedquery
1. Ensure that the database you want to create a query for is open
2. Click the query tab, then new
3. In the new query dialog box, choose either to create a query from in Designing view or using
Wizard
2. 4. To design from scratch, click design view. The show table dialog box appears from which you
can add a table or tables you wish to create in a query form.
5. Click the table from the table/query list and then click add
6. Click close to close the show table dialog box.
7. The query design grid opens. In Microsoft Access it is called query example (Q.BE)
Specifying the search criteria
To search for a particular set of records, you have to enter a conditional statement or statements
in the criteria row.
Example:-
If you have a table called employees with one of fields as salary, you can display all the
employees earning more than shs.5000 by typing >5000 in the criteria row, salary column.
To define criteria, use either relational or logical operations, Relational operators include
Less than <
Greater than >
Greater than or equal to >=
Less than or equal to <=
Not equal to <>
Equal to =
Logical operators include AND, OR and NOT
AND-Is used to display values in a specific range.
Example:-If you type >4000 AND < 6000 on the criteria row in salary column. All employees
who meet this condition will be displayed
OR-Is used to display either one of the two values eg: If you wish to get those employees either
in Dar es Salaam or Morogoro.
TO-Display data in a particular range, use the word between.eg in steady of typing >4000 AND
<6000, type between 4000 AND 6000.
3. NOT Is used to display all records except that you do not want to see.
Eg If you type NOT 8000 in salary column of the employees table. All employees’ records will
be displayed except those with the salary 8000.
Modifying and updating a query
To delete fields from the query grid.
1. Open the a desired query in design view
2. Select the field column you want to delete
3. Choose delete from the edit menu.
4. Click the save button to save the changes
To adjust the column query in a query
1. Open the desired query in design view
2. Position the mouse pointer at the boundary that separates columns, then drag it to the required
size.Alternatively, double click the boundary to auto fit cell content.
3. Click the save button to save the changes.
To modify a criteria statement, select query:-
1. Open the desired query in design view.
2. Modify the criteria statements as desired
3. Click the save button to save changes
4. To test whether the changes have been affected, click the run button to display the results of
the query.
