CIS112 Introduction to Computing Excel #2 Assignment
Due: Sunday midnight of Unit 5
In this assignment, you will practice the skills of creating and formatting Excel charts using data you collect over the week.
From Monday through Friday, use a spreadsheet to track how many hours you spend using technology, categorizing them by Personal and Professional. Record the hours up to tenths of an hour (one decimal place). Create two charts: Pie chart and Line
Your work must meet the following requirements:
· New workbook:
· Open a new Excel workbook. Save it as Initials_TechnologyTime.xlsx where Initials are your initials.
· By default, 3 worksheets are provided. Delete two of them and rename the remaining tab to "Time".
· Data
· Title the columns with these headers: Day, Personal, Professional
· In the day column, fill in the days of the week starting with Monday and ending with Friday
· In the Personal and Professional columns, fill in the hours you spent using technology for either personal or professional purposes, to the nearest tenth (one decimal place).
· Pie Chart:
· Create a 2-D pie chart using the Personal data for the week.
· Change the title to "Personal Technology Time".
· The legend should be on the right side and should display the days of the week.
· Add data labels so they are easy to read.
· Line Graph:
· Create any type of line graph showing both the Personal and Professional data for the week.
· Add a title to the top of "Technology Time".
· Add a title to the Primary Vertical Axis of "Hours" with your choice of format.
· The horizontal axis should display the days of the week.
· Add data labels to the data points so they are easy to read.
· Experiment with the other formatting features to make the table engaging and easy to interpret.
