9. MS Excel 1
The first module in this course is designed for students to learn about the course
structure, how to turn in assignments, and what the assessments will be like. Students
will be introduced to the team learning approach and the flipped classroom model.
Students will also start to learn some MS Excel tools. absolute and relative
addressing, how to create plots that effectively display results, and making the data
easy for others to understand.
Topics Covered
Introduction of the Instructional team
Introduction to the ENGR 13300 course, assessment, assignments, and office hours
Professional preparation and practice, ethics, and academic integrity
Using MS Excel as a computational tool
Using absolute and relative addressing
Creating graphs and plots in MS Excel
Learning Objectives and Course Outcomes
At the end of this module, you will be able to:
Describe the basic components of ENGR 13300
Explain how to upload assignments in Gradescope
Perform basic calculations with MS Excel
Perform complex calculations with MS Excel (using order of operations)
Use absolute, relative, and mixed addressing in MS Excel
Create plots appropriate for technical presentation in MS Excel
These learning objectives are directly connected to the following Course
Outcomes:
