Wright-Stuff Music » Numbers http://wrightstuffmusic.edublogs.org Though everything else may appear shallow and repulsive, even the smallest task in music is so absorbing, and carries us so far away from town, country, earth, and all worldly things, that it is truly a blessed gift of God. - Felix Mendelssohn Fri, 16 Jan 2009 00:12:46 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.2 en hourly 1 Reporting Student Progress http://wrightstuffmusic.edublogs.org/2008/12/10/reporting-student-progress/ http://wrightstuffmusic.edublogs.org/2008/12/10/reporting-student-progress/#comments Wed, 10 Dec 2008 01:19:23 +0000 wrightstuffmusic http://wrightstuffmusic.edublogs.org/?p=82 The inbuilt functions of Apples iWork 08 Numbers are great for student marking and reporting.

I can easily create averages, rankings and then 3D graphs or tables that correlate to my data.

A personal favourite of mine is the ability to graph a student’s results next to the class average in an easy to see format.  This is a great tool for informing parents of their child’s progress at parent teacher nights.

The blue line is the class average while the green line is the student’s results.  And you will notice their rank is given for each individual task as well!
