DESCRIPTION

Watch this with a 10-15 minute audiotrack at http://vimeo.com/novusprogram/excel2 This lesson builds upon the concepts that were learned in the previous Excel lesson. The topics covered include formatting of Microsoft Excel worksheets, more advanced data entry, and tools for performing simple analysis of data. The objective of the lesson is for the user to be comfortable with changing a worksheet’s page layout including page view, page breaks, and orientation; printing Excel documents; resizing worksheet columns and rows; adding styles to cells; using basic operator calculations; and analyzing data through sort and filter operations. The lesson teaches concepts through a combination of image-based slides and video tutorials. The Novus project is a combination of video tutorials designed to be used in conjunction with a free business simulation software program. The Novus Business and IT Program contains 36 business and IT training videos, covering basic finance, accounting, marketing, economics, business strategy, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Users will have an opportunity to apply the lessons in the Novus Business Simulator. Over six rounds, the user or teams will have to make decisions on capital purchases, financing, production, financing, and human resources for a microbrewery. This channel has arranged the 36 video lessons into the order in which they are meant to be used with the simulator.
