Since skills on spreadsheets help students succeed, any professional educator will benefit from being a member.
SLM pedagogy significantly upgrades quantitative modeling capability across the spectrum from High School Science up to college courses. This upgrade is due in part to the ease of programming and the calculating power of spreadsheets as well as the diverse skills sets of all contributing teacher authors. The skills practiced on spreadsheets in school will help students prepare for and be more productive in their future careers.
We know that enhanced modeling capability on spreadsheets can also make quantitative learning interactive and highly engaging giving real meaning and relevance to all of the underlying mathematics.
Joining the SLM resource network gives teachers everything they need to master educating their students with spreadsheet modeling as quickly and easily as possible and the applications that can be pursued by somebody with mastery in spreadsheet applications are limitless.
How? Each lesson is classroom ready and tested in real practice. We save teachers time by delivering: (1) Lesson Plans, (2) NGSS Standards Alignment, (3) An introductory slide show to start each module, (4) A word document handout that guides students and offers assessment (5) The completed spreadsheet model that students will program, (6) A time-saving template that has column headings labeled but no formulas programmed,
We supply all teachers at licensed schools with teaching resources and updates.

Advantages for Licensed Members
|
Spreadsheet Lab Manual (SLM) lesson resources were developed and refined using student testing, teacher feedback and student data based improvements. Assessments evolve and as new applications are added we can optimize members' instructional time, enabling teacher talents directed toward enriching the modeling experience for students.
By joining our network you will be able to design and run your own PD sessions and teachers will gain proficiency and see the many possible applications and adaptations that this package will inspire in teachers. When a school's starting point is the complete works of The Spreadsheet Lab Manual. |
