This is a three-hour introductory workshop for students in Grades 4 or 5, designed to provide students with a hands-on introduction to the basics of using databases and spreadsheets. Both of these computer tools are part of the NC Standard Course of Study, and students in Grades 4 and 5 are expected to demonstrate proficiency in their use. This workshop will provide students with a solid foundation in the use of both of these tools. The first part of the workshop will focus on the creation and use of databases, while the second half of the workshop will look at using and creating spreadsheets.
