STEM - Friday Topic of the Week

STEM stands for Science Technology Engineering Math.

ASSIGNMENT READING : 1 page article (an ad ) in Bloomberg Magazine entitled “STEM Sell” Posted to my UME website. Go to the UME website http://howard_rattliff.myteachersite.org/teacher/site/ Path is www.umeprep.org/HOME/TEACHER SITES/Howard Rattliff

Under Teacher Sites select my name and you’ll see the class postings. The article is a jpeg file posted under the LN (lecture notes ) 9-13-2013 postings. Read and be prepared to discuss in class Monday – Topic of the Day session.

Ideas / Suggestion: Attend STEM Summer sessions at local universities. SMU has a engineering summer program for High School. Texas Wesleyan in Fort Worth has one. These are great resources that encourage student to consider Science Technology Engineering and Math as career. Even if you don’t consider this a career path, technology is so pervasive that this investment helps you use it and understand it.

It is a great competitive edge! It keep all your options open.

Class Exercise !!

1. Default settings 2. The IF statement (conditional logic) - “A Classic”

Powering Up the PC - Class Protocol 1 (rules/etiquette observed )

1. Go silently and orderly to computers- and sit down. Any PC will do.

2. Look for power on /off for Display or Monitor - Turn on Monitor

Logical condition Programming – The basic If statement

Returns one value if a condition you specify evaluates to TRUE and another value if it evaluates to FALSE.

Use IF to conduct conditional tests on values and formulas.

Syntax

IF(logical_test,value_if_true,value_if_false) Logical_test is any value or expression that can be evaluated to TRUE or FALSE.

For example, A10=100 is a logical expression; if the value in cell A10 is equal to 100, the expression evaluates to TRUE. Otherwise, the expression evaluates to FALSE. This argument can use any comparison calculation operator.

If Statement Construct (Syntax)

A

Data Facility Name

50

Formula Description

=IF(A2<=100,"Within budget","Over budget")

If the number above is less than or equal to 100, then the formula displays "Within budget". Otherwise, the function displays "Over budget"

TrueFalse

1.2.

Microsoft Excel Worksheet

Value_if_true is the value that is returned if logical_test is TRUE. For example, if this argument is the text string "Within budget" and the

logical_test argument evaluates to TRUE, then the IF function displays the text "Within budget". If logical_test is TRUE and value_if_true is blank, this argument returns 0 (zero).

To display the word TRUE, use the logical value TRUE for this argument. Value_if_true can be another formula.

Value_if_false is the value that is returned if logical_test is FALSE. For example, if this argument is the text string "Over budget" and the

logical_test argument evaluates to FALSE, then the IF function displays the text "Over budget". If logical_test is FALSE and value_if_false is omitted, (that is, after value_if_true,

there is no comma), then the logical value FALSE is returned. If logical_test is FALSE and value_if_false is blank (that is, after value_if_true,

there is a comma followed by the closing parenthesis), then the value 0 (zero) is returned.

Value_if_false can be another formula.
