Excell

First of all, Excell is not something that I excell in personally. I don't have Microsoft Office on my laptop and so I do not have any previous experience with the program. Keeping that in mind, I thought that Geoff's lesson was adequate, but not necessarily ideal. Maybe I was just a little slow that day, but it seemed like he was moving just a bit too fast. Actually, Im not sure what it was but I was lost for most of the lecture. Luckily, everyone at my table was very willing to help me figure out what we were instructed to do. So, I suppose that it was good that Geoff hurried because that allowed time for us to help each other. In teaching, you always are going to have one or two students behind everyone else, but you cannot just wait for them while the rest of the class is extremely bored. By working with my peers after Geoff's brief intro to Excell, I was able to ask others questions that were specific to what I was struggling with. So, I guess what I am trying to say is that the teaching method that Geoff used was a good one, but there are better ways out there. I apologize if this entire blog made no sense because I pretty sure that is the case. The end.
