Reflection on excel

During the first semester, we had a module called Functional Informational Technology (FIT) which is most commonly taught all around the world, particularly in the universities for the educational purpose. Under this module, we were introduced with the various Microsoft with different kinds of tools such as MS, PowerPoint, MS excel, etc. While introducing these various tools in the class by the tutor, I felt much confident and was excited to learn more about technologies because I was not well informed about the technologies. This used to be the reason for me to always visit the ICT labs whenever I used to get free time.

By using the MS. Excel or spreadsheet, what I have learned is that it allows us to define the structure of information we need to manage with ease and this spreadsheet software is very easy to use and data is managed in a systematic ways. From the large amount of data entered in the spreadsheet, we can easily analyze and summarize the large amount by using graph features that is existing in the MS. Excel. Excel is a versatile tool and can be used for creating calendars, charts, diagrams, forms, reports, schedules and time table sheets which helps us and allows us to enhance the overall functionality of excel features. I found it useful to use spreadsheet in recording and making the result sheets of the students.

Excel sheet performs the calculations where it consumes less time for the calculation of large data. I have noticed that in the formulae address, if the formulae is entered wrong, then excel would not perform the calculation. Thereby, it always reminded me to enter the correct formulae in the formulae address bar. Filtering is powerful tool that can allow the data to quickly examine the data and reduces the visible rows based on the certain criteria. Moreover, we can also learn a lots of vocabularies by using excel because it will automatically correct the words if we have typed them incorrectly. 
MS. Excel is commonly used and it is still the most favored and used spreadsheet software around the globe. It helps us to manipulate, manage and analyze data for decision making and creating efficiencies. Excel provides us with the right tools to enable ourselves to accomplish what we need. It is commonly used across the business to display the financial information and other data relevant to the business. In the education sector, such as in schools, colleges and institutes, the administration and the tutor uses spreadsheet for maintaining the records of the students. I find it very convenient to use and it also saves our time and we can use the saved time in other productive activities like reading, writing, sporting, etc.
