Level I: Basic Functions Initials _______
1. Calculating an Average: Calculate the arithmetic average of the 5 values listed below. Enter the values in cells A2 through A6. Place a descriptive label in cell A1.
3.6, 3.8, 3.5, 3.7, 3.6
First, calculate the average the long way, by summing the values and dividing by 5:
You will enter the following formula into a blank cell to accomplish this:
=(A2+A3+A4+A5+A6)/5
Second, calculate the average using Excel’s AVERAGE( ) function by entering the following formula in a cell:
=AVERAGE(cellrange)
Replace the “cellrange” with the actual addresses in your spreadsheet of the range of cells holding the five values (i.e., for this problem, the cell range is A2:A6).
2. Determining Velocities (in kph): Some friends at the University of Calgary are coming south for spring break. Help them avoid a speeding ticket by completing a velocity conversion worksheet that calculates the conversion from mph to kph in increments of 10 from 10 to 100. A conversion factor you will need is 0.62 miles/km; you will need this factor to convert from miles/hour to km/hour. Place the conversion factor in its own cell and then reference it in your conversion calculations using absolute cell referencing (e.g., $C$2). Refer to the CBT video on Absolute and Relative Cell Referencing from the “Preparation for the Excel Workshop” assignment if you don’t remember how to do this.
Level II: Advanced Functions Initials _______
1. Projectile Motion I: (See following page for Fig. 1 Excel chart) A projectile is launched at the angle 35o from the horizontal with a velocity equal to 30 m/s. Neglecting air resistance and assuming a horizontal surface, determine how far away from the launch site the projectile will land.
To answer this problem, you will need:
1. Excel’s trigonometry functions to handle the 35o angle, and
2. Equations relating distance to velocity and acceleration
When velocity is constant, as in the horizontal motion of our particle (since we’re neglecting air resistance), the distance traveled is simply the initial horizontal velocity times the time of flight:
(Equation 1)
What keeps the projectile from flying forever is gravity. Since the gravitational acceleration is constant, the vertical distance traveled becomes
(Equation 2)
Because the projectile ends up back on the ground, the final value of y is zero (a hor ...

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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.

This slides describes the basic concepts of ICT, basics of Email, Emerging Technology and Digital Initiatives in Education. This presentations aligns with the UGC Paper I syllabus.
2. OBJECTIVES:
After the presentation, we shall be able to:
◦Know the importance of excel in computing grades
◦Recognize some functions of each formulas in excel
◦Learn the application of the formulas
◦Distinguish some statistical functions and weighted averages
◦Identify some conditional calculations and Look Ups
3. Why do we use Excel in computing grades?
Ease of inputting grades
Use of formulas for automatic calculation of:
-point totals
-dropping lowest score from total
-averages
-final letter grade conversion
Easy import into other programs (Web, etc.)
4. What makes Excel so powerful?
Its ability to perform predetermined
calculations, automatically. This is
accomplished by developing formulas that do
the work for us.
5. It is important to understand how formulas work.
All formulas begin with “=”
Excel uses numbered rows and lettered columns for
reference in formulas.
6. FUNCTION WHAT IT DOES
SUM(range ) Adds a range of cells
AVERAGE( range) Calculates the average of a range of cells
MAX(range ) Returns the maximum value of a range
MIN(range ) Returns the minimum value of a range
COUNT(range ) Counts the number of values (cells containing numbers) in a range
COUNTA(range ) Counts the number of non-blank cells within a range
COUNTBLANK(range ) Counts the number of blank cells within a range
COUNTIF(range, "string" ) Counts the number of cells that are the same as a search string
STDEV(range) Calculate the standard deviation of a sample
SMALL(range, n) Returns the nth smallest number in the specified range
The table below lists several of the more common and
helpful statistical functions in Microsoft Excel.
7. Key Notes:
The SUM( ) and AVERAGE( ) functions are most frequently used.
The COUNT( ) function ignores blank cells and does not count cells
that contain text labels.
To count cells containing text, you must use the COUNTA( )
function.
8. Statistical Functions and Weighted Averages
A B C D E F
1 Student Exam 1 Exam 2 Exam 3 Final Average
2 Davis 88 73 85 78 =AVERAGE(B2:E2)
Excel has numerous functions to summarize data. The AVERAGE( ) function calculates the average of a group of
numbers. For example in cell F2 below, =AVERAGE(B2:E2) calculates the average for the student in row 2. This
AVERAGE( ) function assumes that all test scores are weighted equally. It also ignores blank cells; it does not
treat them as 0.
9. Weighted Averages
There are many methods to create a weighted average using formulas. For example, if you want to count each
test 20% and the final 40%, use the following formula:
=(B3*.20)+(C3*.20)+(D3*.20)+(E3*.40)
You can easily modify this formula to accommodate a different grading scheme.
A B C D E F
1 Student Exam 1 Exam 2 Exam 3 Final Average
2 Davis 88 73 85 78 =AVERAGE(B2:E2)
3 Johnson 52 71 65 67 =(B3*.20)+(C3*.20)+(D3*.20)+(E3*.40)
10. Dropping Low Scores
The MIN( ) function returns the smallest value in a range of cells. The formula in cell F4 above adds all test scores
for Smith then subtracts the minimum test score and divides the result by 3. This formula also assumes that all
scores are weighted equally. However, you can calculate a weighted average and drop a low score.
A B C D E F
1 Student Exam 1 Exam 2 Exam 3 Final Average
2 Davis 88 73 85 78 =AVERAGE(B2:E2)
3 Johnson 52 71 65 67 =(B3*.20)+(C3*.20)+(D3*.20)+(E3*.40)
4 Smith 91 85 96 89 =(SUM(B4:E4)-MIN(B4:E4))/3
11. Excel’s SMALL( ) function is also helpful in determining the second or third lowest score. The syntax of the
SMALL( ) function is =SMALL(data,n) where data is the range of cells containing the data and n represents the
smallest number in the data set.
For example to find the second lowest test score for Connor in the previous example use SMALL(B6:E6,2); to
determine the third lowest score use SMALL(B6:E6,3). If you need to calculate an average that drops the two
lowest scores use MIN( ) to subtract the lowest and use SMALL( ) to subtract the second lowest. The formula in
cell F6 in the table above drops the two lowest exam scores and calculates the average with the final and the
remaining Exam score counting 50% each.
A B C D E F
1 Student Exam 1 Exam 2 Exam 3 Final Average
2 Davis 88 73 85 78 =AVERAGE(B2:E2)
3 Johnson 52 71 65 67 =(B3*.20)+(C3*.20)+(D3*.20)+(E3*.40)
4 Smith 91 85 96 89 =(SUM(B4:E4)-MIN(B4:E4))/3
5 Jones 78 82 67 75 =(SUM(B5:D5)-MIN(B5:D5))/2*.60 + (E5*.40)
6 Connor 88 91 83 75 =(SUM(B6:D6)-MIN(B6:D6)-
SMALL(B6:D6,2))*.50 + (E6*.50)
12. Conditional Calculations and Lookups
Excel has several logical functions that let you test cells and perform
different operations depending on their contents.
IF( ) function
The IF() function enables you to specify two different calculations based
on a certain condition. The syntax of the IF( ) function is
=IF(condition, calculation if condition is true, calculation if condition is
false)
13. Conditional Calculations and Lookups
AND( ) and OR( ) functions
To specify multiple conditions within an IF( ) function, use Excel's
AND( ) and OR( ) functions.
The syntax of these functions is:
=AND(condition 1, condition 2, ...condition n)
= OR(condition 1, condition 2, ...condition n)
AND( ) returns the value of TRUE if all its conditions are true, and
returns FALSE otherwise. OR( ) returns TRUE if at least one of the
specified conditions is true.
14. ISBLANK( ) function
Excel’s ISBLANK( ) function tests whether a certain cell is blank,.
This function returns TRUE if the cell is blank and FALSE if it’s
not.
Conditional Calculations and Lookups
15. Lookup Tables
The IF( ) function is very useful, but it is limited to either TRUE or FALSE outcomes. In many
worksheets, you might want to create a function that handles multiple outcomes. Excel's
VLOOKUP( ) function is ideally suited for this sort of calculation.
With the VLOOKUP( ) function (short for vertical lookup) you can specify lookup values for
different outcomes. For example, if you have a list of numeric averages in a worksheet, you
can create a formula that assigns letter grades based on a student's numeric score (e.g. a
score of 76 would be a C).
To use a VLOOKUP( ) function, you must first create a lookup table with a range of values.
This lookup table is similar in concept to a tax table. When using a tax table, find your income
in the first column and then read across to the column that applies to you, single, married
etc.
