Trouble with formulae? Lookups not going so well? The Wizard of Excel can help. Dan Harrison offers practical tips and examples, as well as I needed to create some wordsearches recently. So I turned to Excel. I created two identically-sized grids: a blank one in which I could type the words I wanted to appear in their rightful positions; and another one next to it, which would surround the keywords with randomised letters. And here's the result. I've shaded the keywords on the right for visual effect. The shading isn't there in the finished product, the English language. (E.g. A appears roughly 82 times in 1012, or 8.1% of the time. My daughter's in the midst of learning her times tables. There are various apps out there that can help, but I was after something that I wanted to be able to specify the times tables that she had learnt, and to give her a randomised, exhaustive test containing one question So if I selected 2, 3, 5 and 10, I wanted a randomised test containing 48 questions – one for each of the 12 multiples within each of the Not being able to find anything, I decided instead to create something. It can be do*nloaded here: times tables spreadsheet The first tab allows the parent or guardian to choose the times tables that the child has allegedly mastered. Enter the same one twice, and The second tab presents the questions in a randomised order to the child. Each question is presented in turn, each question not showing until the child has attempted to answer its predecessor. The child is given a tick or a cross as soon as they answer the question, and at the top of the screen, they're given a live status (at a jaunty angle) showing their progress through the test. My favourite feature is that the ordering of the questions is randomised, and that random order changes each day you open the spreadsheet. So kids can't get complacent about remembering the order in which the questions appear. (Basically, take a random number between o and 1, divide it by the day of the month; divide it by the month of the year, multiply the result
