Introductory Message
Welcome to Empowerment Technology!

The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts of the

Schools Division of Iloilo City and DepEd Regional Office VI - Western Visayas through
the Curriculum and Learning Management Division (CLMD). This is developed to
guide the learning facilitators (teachers, parents, and responsible adults) in helping the
learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum.

The Learning Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional materials aimed to

guide the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and time using the
contextualized resources in the community. This will also assist the learners in
acquiring lifelong learning skills, knowledge, and attitudes for productivity and
employment.

For learning facilitator:

The Empowerment Technology Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the
teaching-learning activities specified in each Most Essential Learning Competency
(MELC) with minimal or no face-to-face encounter between you and the learner. This
will be made available to the learners with references/links to ease the independent
learning.

For the learner:

The Empowerment Technology Activity Sheet is developed to help you

continue learning even if you are not in school. This learning material provides you
with meaningful and engaging activities for independent learning. Being an active
learner, carefully read and understand the instructions then perform the activities and
answer the assessments. This will be returned to your facilitator on the agreed
schedule.

Advanced Techniques using Microsoft Excel

Spreadsheet

Spreadsheet It is a software application that enables a user to save, sort and

manage data in an arranged form of rows and columns.

Microsoft Excel provides an automated way of displaying any statistical data. It

can be used to automatically compute several factors that are not easy to notice
especially when faced with large data. Microsoft Excel includes several
arithmetic and basic functions that help you compute faster.

4
 Beyond arithmetic operations, spreadsheets provide invaluable tools
such as functions that are very useful in calculating data. As a result,
spreadsheets have become one of the widely used software programs, and MS
Excel is the most commonly used spreadsheet tool. Spreadsheets can be used
to determine statistical analysis, compute student’s grades, keep track of
business accounts and inventories, and manage databases. Spreadsheets are
made up of the following:
Columns – identified with alphabetic headings
Rows - identified with numeric headings Columns
Rows

Cells – are the intersection of rows and columns

• Cell Reference – also known as cell address that identifies a cell on a
worksheet.
• Active Cell – the currently selected cell in a spreadsheet and is indicated by a
bold outline that surrounds the cell
• Text or labels – It identifies the purpose of a cell, it can be a brief instruction,
a title or caption.
• Number data or constant – a value that doesn’t change and is directly inserted
into a cell.
• Formula (mathematical equations) – an expression that calculates the value
of a cell.
• Functions- These are pre-defined formulas that are already available in MS
Excel.
• Mathematical Operators – MS Excel uses standard operators for formulas.

Basic Excel Formulas:

Addition (+)
Subtraction (-)
Multiplication (*)
Division (/)
*type <=> before the formula, thus: =a1+a2 <then, hit the ENTER key>
• Average – a function used to compute for the average of the number of a range.
• COUNTIF – a function used to count the cells with a specified content within a
range.
• SUMIF – a function used to compute for the summation of a range if a certain
condition is met
• AVERAGEIF – a function used to compute for the average of a range if a certain
condition is met

Advanced Techniques using Microsoft PowerPoint
Presentations
➢ A presentation is a collection of data and information that is to be delivered
to a specific audience.
➢ A PowerPoint presentation is a collection of electronic slides that can have
text, pictures, graphics, tables, sound and video. This collection can run
automatically or can be controlled by a presenter.

• HYPERLINKS - In PowerPoint Hyperlinks are similar to links you might have

seen on a website. They allow you to jump back and forth between specific
slides in your presentation, to movie files that don't work on PowerPoint slides,
to other files, or to a webpage (if you are connected to the internet).

Using Hyperlinks in Microsoft PowerPoint:

1. Select an object or highlight a text.
2. Go to Insert > Hyperlinks (under links
category) or use the shortcut key
Ctrl + K.
The insert Hyperlink dialog
box would appear.

6
 Link to Options:
a. Existing File or Web Page – creates a hyperlink to a website or a local file
saved in your hard drive. Just browse your file in the dialog box or type the
web address.
b. Place in This Document – creates a hyperlink that allows you to jump to
a specific slide in your presentation.
c. Create a New Document – creates a hyperlink that once clicked, creates
a new document on your specified location.
d. E-mail Address – creates a hyperlink that opens Microsoft Outlook that
automatically adds your specified recipient to a new email.
3. When done, click OK to apply your hyperlink.

Embedding Objects in Microsoft PowerPoint

Embedding objects is easy using PowerPoint Presentation. With this option,
you can insert an Excel file that would look like a table to a PowerPoint Presentation.

Embedding an Excel File to your PowerPoint Presentation

1. Go to the Insert tab.
2. On the Text group, click on Object.
3. The Insert Object dialog box would appear:
Once you are done, click OK.
Options:
a. Create New – creates a
new file from scratch. You
can select on a wide variety
of files listed.
b. Create from File –
creates a file from an
existing file saved on your
hard drive; simply browse
the file to use it. Putting a
check on the “link” option
will allow you to modify the
Excel file inside your
PowerPoint Presentation.
