Birthdays Database
Description: Students collect 15 names, date of birth, and ages of their classmates. Data is inputted to MS Excel with the formatting shown in the example. Students use the Autofilter feature in Excel to sort their data chronologically from youngest to oldest. They then copy and paste the data table to a MS Word file (shown in the example). They need to use standard reporting page set-up with a header, title and indented paragraphs with 1.5-2 line spacing. They must write an introductory paragraph, show the data table, and write a summary paragraph that extrapolates and describes at least 2 pieces of data shown in the table
Reflection: I thought this assignment was pretty easy because all we had to do was walk around the room collecting names and birthdays. Then we had to put them on Microsoft Excel to make a data table. Once we made the data table we copy and pasted it on Microsoft Word and made the doc above.
