Join us in this interactive session to learn how to effectively filter and disaggregate data using Excel. Participants will explore the process of ordering and retrieving reports, unzipping files, and formatting Excel spreadsheets. Our hands-on practice will focus on filtering specific datasets, such as 6th-grade male students who scored above the 50th percentile in mathematics. By the end of the session, participants will understand the benefits of using Excel for data-driven decision-making and how to apply these skills in their own contexts.
