Working with Worksheets in Excel Workbooks – Part 1

I have been quite busy this year teaching several “continuing education” courses online for colleges here in the USA. One of the benefits – for me as the instructor – is that I get “real time” feedback from my students when they submit their assignments. I like this!

Objectives for Lesson - Working w Worksheets Part 1

Working with Excel Worksheets in Excel Workbooks

From some of my recent interactions with my students, I realize that I need to reinforce the concept of working with Excel Worksheets inside an Excel Workbook.

In this Excel Tutorial, I address these three concepts:

  1. 1) Working in “Group Mode” to place content and corrections in multiple Excel Worksheets.
  2. 2) The Advantages of using Color-Coding for each Excel Worksheet Tab.
  3. 3) Using the Keyboard Combinations of Ctrl + Page Up and Ctrl + Page Down to navigate – and “activate” individual Excel Worksheets inside an Excel Workbook.

How to Copy and Paste Cell Formatting Only in Excel

For the past several months, I have been teaching MS Excel online for the Continuing Education Courses at several major colleges here in the USA. It has been a great experience!.

Splash Page for Excel with ExcelOne of my clients, VanderCook College of Music, has recently adopted Schoology for their Learning Management System (LMS). This is a robust framework for presenting course work and interacting with my students!

Now, when I assign my weekly assignments to my class, I can quickly spot the common “stumbling blocks” or questions that many student have.

While I was grading my Week #1 assignments, I found that many students were unfamiliar with Excel’s AutoFill Option for “Filling the Formatting Only” in a contiguous range of cells. So, as a start to a class discussion, I created this YouTube Excel Tutorial where I demonstrate three ways to “Paste the Formatting Only” from one location to multiple locations in an Excel Worksheet.

Before I presented my course work for Week #1, I surveyed my class and realized that the majority of students were either novice or “rusty” users of Excel. Nevertheless, I find that Excel users at all levels of experience will benefit from this @ 7 minute video tutorial.
