Abstract
This instructional unit is intended to assist teachers in helping students learn to use electronic spreadsheets. The 11 learning activities included; all of which are designed for use in conjunction with Multiplan Spreadsheet Software; are arranged in order of increasing difficulty. An effort has been made to include problems applicable to each of the following areas: basic business; secretarial; administrative support; information processing; marketing; and accounting. Topics covered in the individual lessons include operating a spreadsheet program; formatting an electronic spreadsheet; entering and saving data; creating a new electronic spreadsheet from an existing one; rearranging and replacing data; changing data on an electronic spreadsheet and understanding the effect of new "what if" projections; printing an electronic spreadsheet; entering formulas; copying data; printing tables; making interest projections; and organizing and creating a new spreadsheet by integrating all of the aforementioned concepts. Each lesson includes a lesson title; objectives; list of needed teaching aids and references; teaching outline; outcomes; learning activity; instructions; and reference data necessary to complete the activity.
