WOW! I guess "comfortable with Excel" is a relative phrase.... Seems that I am actually comfortable with, as Jamie pointed out, that which I use on a regular basis. I learned quite a bit today! I learned a few new functions from Dr. Closen today, and they will save me a tremendous amount of time in the future. (Thanks, Dr. Closen!)
I enjoyed working together with my group to figure out the problems of learning something new. Transfer this to the classroom, where students struggle together and I think that it builds a sense of community, and a sense of pride when a problem is solved.
Practical experience like this excites me (Could you tell, Karen?) and I'm eager to learn things that I can put to use. This wasn't just "another hoop" to jump through - it's something we can all use. Sorry if I stepped on anyone's toes... Have a great week, everyone!
