A data driven site I use frequently is Blackboard. If I were to store this data in a spreadsheet I would display the row as the specified class I am enrolled in. The columns would consist of Attendance grade, Exam grades, Quiz grades, Homework grades, and Extra Credit. Looking at the data from Blackboard on a spreadsheet would make it easy to view…[Read more]

I’ve never actually researched if this was scientifically proven to be true but I have always believed it to be true and accurate. A way I would test this notion is through experimental testing. You can take two…[Read more]
