Using Excel!

This week we learned how to make interactive spreadsheets (practice or quizzes) using the Excel worksheet program. This was a challenging task at first. After playing around with the program a bit, I feel it could be easy to get used to. It is great tool for any classroom including an art classroom.

I chose to make my spreadsheet on the design element of line with a focus on outline, contour lines, and hatching. My goal was for each student to practice in differentiating between these three types of lines and observe them within drawings. This is made for an elementary art class. After much trial, error, and success, I have finally finished my practice spreadsheet. Here is a screen shot of the spreadsheet.
