Spreadsheet Report
The spreadsheet is intended for a science teacher teaching a Year 10
class in a secondary school. He is having difficulty managing all of
the data concerning the marks and attendance of class 10X2. He would
like to know if a computer could aid him to process the data from
module tests that are being taken this year. He would like to know
whether the pupils are on target or not, the grades gained from the
tests, the total marks and grades, and the average, minimum and
maximum marks and grades. He would also like the computer to help him
to keep track attendance. He would like to know the total attendance
of the members of his class.
When complete, the spreadsheet will automatically calculate the grade
of each module test, and display whether the pupil is working at heir
level. It will also calculate the total marks and average grade of
each pupil, and for the entire class. This will be shown on one sheet,
whilst on another, the total number of attendances and the total
attendance as a percentage over a whole term will be shown. This will
be useful for the teacher so as he can monitor his pupils and help
those who are under performing easily.
In order to do this, I needed to plan out the spreadsheet. I worked
out what sheets and tables I needed, and figured out which functions
and formulae I would be using to calculate with. I planned to have two
sheets, Tests and Attendance. The Tests sheet contains three tables.
The first is the Results table and it contains the results of the
science module tests. The pupil's surname and forename are located in
the first two columns, and their expected mark in the third column.
The data relating to each separate test is located in three adjacent
columns, with a merged cell above tying them together. There are four
of these next to each other, one for each module. The first column in
the group of three is called Marks, and this contains the actual score
from each test. The next column is called Grade and this shows the
grade corresponding to the mark. This grade is obtained from the
second table, called Points, which contains the points and grading
system. Using the VLOOKUP function does this. The cell references here
must be absolutes. The third and final column is called Attainment.

Mayor Bloomberg’s plan is to decrease the amount of sugar intake that Americans digest. However, to do this successfully, he would need to include all sugary products that affect Americans, not just the most popular products, which happens to be soda. When you take away soda, people will start to replace the drink with something more available. The replacement drink could easily be something more caloric or sugary than the banned drink. Therefore, no change is made. Pure juices have the potential to be unhealthier than soda. These factors need to be considered when deciding what or what not to ban. It would be unfair to target soda and the companies that profit off of soda, without considering the other sugary products and their effect on the world. Some could argue that juice comes from fruit, while soda is artificial. Also, sugars in juice are more natural than the high fructose corn syrup. All the while, this is suppose to support the idea that juice is healthier than soda. However, according to the journal, Nutrition, fruit juice, on average, has a fructose concentration of about 45.5 grams per liter. 45.5 grams per liter is only a bit less than the average 50 grams per liter for

In this policy advocacy brief, CCPHA is advocating for the implementation of California’s Soda Tax (AB 669). AB 669 would impose a one cent tax per ounce on soda as well as other sugar enriched drinks. This statewide tax ...
In Marrakech, the way the people act and are treated is odd. The most striking thing is the strange invisibility of the people. An example of this are the women that passed by Orwell everyday without his noticing. All Orwell noticed was the firewood they were carrying. He realizes that he felt for the donkeys carrying too much before he noticed the old women. He continued on to state, “Anyone can be sorry for the donkey with its galled back, but it is generally owing to some kind of accident if one even notices the old women under her load ...
The article, Soda Consumption Does Not Equal Obesity, states that soda is not the only reason people are obese. When people are more active, they are less likely to have an obesity-related illness. Being active plays an important role because people are constantly burning fat, which makes it less likely for them to be overweight or obese. Economists from Emory University declare that soft drinks do not have a big impact on weight. The reason was that when untaxed, soft drinks only represent 7% of a soda drinker’s calorie intake. An article released by the National Association of Convenience Stores states that Virginia and Arkansas are currently taxing soda. “Just look at West Virginia and Arkansas, two states currently taxing soft drinks. Those two states have some of the highest obesity rates in the country,” said Muhart Kent. If taxing soda did not affect obesity in those two states, then it will not affect obesity in any
...up to 14% among youths. On average, SSB consumption contributes 295 kilocalories per day among those who drink at least 1 SSB per day29 and contributes 33% of the added sugars in our diet” (Kass). While an American Health journalist says, “A 2012 national survey showed that 62% of Americans somewhat or strongly opposed SSB taxes, with 37% of fast food chains strongly opposed… Cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers are strongly associated with obesity, which accounted for an estimated $147 billion in national medical spending in 2008, Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) are gaining policy attention as a result of reported links between their consumption and weight gain, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes. Evidence also shows an association between decreasing SSB consumption and weight loss among people who attend fast food restaurants” (Jou).
I will begin with a solidified schedule. I have requested RCAS tutoring for every class this quarter to review, prepare, and improve my understanding of my courses. Having RCAS tutoring will not only be to go in and ask quick questions, but rather to also set an hour for dedicated studying for each class. Having someone who is also capable in assisting me with any questions I have will make the learning process much smoother and better. In addition, I will be meeting Ms. Vosters every week as well to find ways to improve my studying habits, and to be held accountable. This meeting will not be the only thing keeping me accountable. I will have 2 documents printed out every week. One document requires signatures from myself and my professors.
The computing system and peripheral devices purchased by this user must be the latest technology in order for him to be successful in his current classes and the courses that he will require in the future. The ideal computer and software package for this person would include a fast processor with new word processing and desktop publishing software, advanced audio and video editing capabilities, and an impressive audio/ visual display with one of the latest video cards available. Also, it is required that the system is fast, efficient, easy to work with, and cost effective.
As our aging population increases, so will the number of people who develop dementia. This condition is distressing for everyone involved, including the patient, family, and caregiver. As research continues, there is hope for a better quality of life for those affected. It is important to increase awareness, encourage prevention, and to be aware of the early signs and symptoms. Each case of dementia presents itself differently, so it is important to know there are different types of dementia along with slightly different signs and symptoms. The sooner dementia can be recognized and intervened, the greater the outcome for the patient.
offered to have a seat and enjoy eating some brunch, which consisted of fresh fruit and granola. I packed extra food for each meal for any who offered to eat with me. She accepted and sat with me, delighted with the idea of brunch and talking about classes. Soon after many others, who were both strangers and friends, stopped by to chat. The likes of which included, 3 Stetson tours, filled with parents asking Paloma and I question about the school and our brunch, multiple faculty members walking by asking what it was we were doing, other Stetson students, and members of University Administration. I informed Paloma I would be leaving at 11:30, as she had stayed till the end of brunch, and left to go to class. After cleaning up the picnic-style
Well in this being the last paper we are dealing with the idea of problem solving there where many scenarios that looked really good, but I thought this one was the best mainly because I have been one of the parent who goes to the store and sees other parents buying projects for their children instead of the kidos doing that project themselves. So first I’ll give the perimeters of what I will be going through then I will state my little problem and we can go from there on the possible ideas and solutions for this little dilemma. The basic line that I am going to follow is that of the same
Twenty-four children were observed for this study. Half of the children were male and the other half were female, all aged between three and four years old, and enrolled in a private southern California preschool that is located on a private college campus. They were all part of a racially diverse classroom, which I drew from in a manner that allowed for a representative sample to be derived.
During my observation at Fred Moore I was able to experience how teachers use rating scales in their classroom. The two teachers in the classroom were talking about were on a scale they were able to self-sooth and follow directions. The teachers were playing with the children as they talked and observed. One of the teachers said to the other who was standing behind the wall writing things down, “Well, Jackson has a hard time some times, so he still needs improvement.” They talked about a few more children in the self-soothing department and then talked about how well they followed directions. Isenberg and Durham (2015) define a ratings scale as an observational tool that helps identify different sets of behaviors, by requiring that a teacher make a professional judgment on a particular behavior. The rating scale ranks behaviors in numbers such as one to five or in words such as “never,” “sometimes,” “usually,” or “always” to determine were a child falls on the scale (Isenberg & Durham, 2015).
