Stock Market Challenge
I selected the stock market challenge assignment because it was an assignment that I received a good mark on. It wasn’t too difficult for me to complete because I was familiar with a lot of the concepts of Excel such as making charts. However, some parts of this assignment were difficult. One of the toughest things was choosing which stocks were the best to invest in and it required me to think very carefully before choosing. Since I had some previous knowledge about stocks, I was able to invest in the right stocks and by the end of the week I had made money instead of losing a vast amount. I demonstrated basic skills of Excel such as using graphs, formulas and icons that helped me complete this assignment. …show more content…
I also demonstrated my math skills to make sure my calculations were correct and precise. I learned many new things from this assignment. One of the main things that I learned from this assignment was stocks. I learned how to check stocks, calculating how much money I made, why certain stocks perform better than others and a lot more. I learned more about Excel such as using different formulas. I will continue to use this software in the future in school specifically math class to complete various assignments that require you to makes graphs, etc. I also will be using Excel in the future to do many business related tasks especially since I want to start my own business.
Business Proposal Summative The business proposal assignment was the hardest assignment to do in unit 2.
I had trouble with numerous things, but was able to complete the assignment on time and still receive a high grade. Firstly, I had difficulty with planning out the type of food I was going to serve at my restaurant and what to write under each item that would be pleasing to the diners. Secondly, when I added the border and background to my menu, I had a little trouble because the border would get out of order or the pictures on my menu would not be where I want them to be. Fortunately, in the end, I resolved those issues. Lastly, I had an issue with making my letter one page because I kept writing too much, but in the end I was able to shorten it. I learned a few things from this assignment such as using tabs and dot leaders. Also, I learned how to use headers and footers and shapes to create borders. For next time, I can improve this assignment by making sure that everything is properly aligned. I will continue to use this software in the future at school during business class to complete different projects that require the use of tabs and dot leaders and headers and footers. This software is helpful in the future in the sense that I want to open a restaurant or for any other business related
tasks.
