I was on Team 18. Things went okay, we worked well together for the most part except that it really didn't help that one member didn't do a whole alot, which made more work for us. It definitely could have went better if we started a little earlier and worked together on all the pages.
At first there was confusion over little things on the page but it was quickly verified for the whole group. It wasn't confusion over any of the directions, they were clear for the most part.
My suggestions for next time is to maybe have people meet in person so that everyone can contribute their amount of work to the group. I feel that if a group met face to face more communicating and working together could be accomplished.
From this project I learned how to find useful sources and how to create APA citing from sources. I also learned how to filter out useful and not so useful information on a certain topic. This will be useful to me most likely in other classes or in the classroom as a teacher.

Excel Reflection Blog
The assignment will be useful to me as a teacher because I will need to be recording students grades, attendance and graphs and Excel is a good way to organize them.
I liked the fact that you can type in one equation and drag down or over to get the rest of the answers. I also liked that the attendance sheet made it easy to see who is always attending class and who isn't. The red A's made it even easier to see the attendance of each student. I didn't like the graphs or doing all the equations for the grades.
I found hyperlinking of each of the sheets to be difficult but I did resolve it by using online sources (Google and youtube).
I think that I did the names and information well but didn't do very well on the graphs or the grade sheet.
I learned alot on Excel. I learned how to use equations to my advantage in order to get the entire class' averages. I also learned how to organize data of a class in a spreadsheet which is helpful for not only myself, but if parents have questions about their students.
