Super excited to be accepted as a Carnegie Mellon Simon Initiative DS4EDU (data science for education) Fellow for 2024 and to start the adventure this week in Pittsburg diving into all things data and education (if you know me, you know I'm tapping my fingers together over all the data-ness that will be :) )

#1 Mistake that wastes time and causes errors in spreadsheets is …… manual calculations!Spreadsheets have so many tools that allow you to automagically calculate the values you want - it is worth saving the time - and avoiding errors - to learn these tools.Stony Brook Community - join me online tomorrow for a quick, FREE, interactive workshop on one of those tools - the new Tables feature in Google Sheets. Check out this section of my video on Tables to see a way they can help you automagically calculate values to use elsewhere in your spreadsheet (e.g., for a report, dashboard, or chart): https://lnkd.in/e9hiaBJD
