This is a Excel workbook collection of 9 project-based, problem solving spreadsheet exercises (with complete

keys) that help students learn to use the following powerful Microsoft Excel functions:

IF

CEILING

CHOOSE

CONCATENATE

COUNTBLANK

RANK

SUM

Each exercise generally takes between 1 and 2 full class periods to complete. I take 10-15 minutes to explain

the problem, the deliverable, and the tools, and then let the students work independently or in small

groups.

I created these for the Microsoft Excel portion of my 9th-grade Computer Applications class, but also

integrated them into my Geomtery, Algebra 2, and Pre-Engineering classes as projects in later years.

Developing a Microsoft Excel skill set is just that important for college-bound students and teachers!
