Instructions for how to create a Data File and Data Dictionary using Excel are located in the Module 3 Videos and Handouts and in the Required Reading: Key Concepts.

You must use Microsoft Excel  to create the data file and data dictionary, and your file must be uploaded as a Microsoft Excel document.

You must use all of the variables and data in the data forms provided in these instructions to create your Data File and Data Dictionary. 

When creating your Data Dictionary, you can decide how, when, and where the variables were measured by using online resources, textbooks, and other references. For example, if you want to describe how height should be measured, you could do an internet search on terms such as 'best way to measure height in adults.'

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS for the Data File and Data Dictionary

Your Data File and Data Dictionary should look like the examples provided in the Module 3 Videos, PowerPoint Slides, Handouts, and the Key Concepts.

The variable label should include the name, make, and model of equipment and instruments used to obtain the measurements.

The variable label should clearly describe the measurement procedures and any procedure guidelines that were used.

Complete everything listed in the grading rubric. We recommend printing the rubric and checking off each item when completed.
