Data set 
How can students analyze their data and create tables and figures in excel?
Due Date: 9/16/2024  11:30am
Learning Objective: Students will learn how to create graphs and tables in excel to properly present data in a scientific format. 
Materials: Three datasets provided by the TAs; files are downloadable from Canvas and computer access.
Instruction:  Following the demonstration and discussion lead by the TAs please use the datasets provided to present data visually in both a graphic and table format.  Please choose the best option to present your data visually in graph format and average rows to present data in a table format.
Introduction: Typically, when you collect data in the field, you will enter the data by building an excel file. For this lab, the excel data files has been provided to you the form of three separate datasheets. Please review the files, read the following instructions to create tables in Microsoft Word and figures in Microsoft Excel, and then complete the assignment at the end of this document. Data organization is a key component of scientific research, as well properly displaying the data you collected to show trends. 
Steps to create figures in Microsoft Excel:
Build excel spread sheet
Columns should be labeled appropriately
Enter data
Enter individual data points for data collection
Double check data to make sure there are no mistakes
Create graph
Select the columns or rows you are graphing
Select “insert” on the excel file and then select the chart (graph) type you would like to use. Please view multiple options before selecting the chart type to best represent your data.
Click on the chart to format the chart.
Click on your data point on the chart to add or delete chart elements including:
Axes
Axis title
Axis legend
Add or change color
Title graph – use a meaningful title that can stand alone explaining what the graph represents.
Average data for tables and graphs using excel
Select a blank cell on the excel file at the end of the row or column you would like to average.
From the menu select “home” and then “autosum”
Click on “autosum” & then “average” and select the data within the column or row you would like to average.
Please note there are additional functions you can select in addition to average.
Steps to Create Tables in Microsoft Word
Go to “Insert”, click on “Table”, then select “insert table” and select the appropriate number of rows and columns. It is easy to add or delete rows or columns after creating the table by highlighting a row or column, right-clicking on your mouse and select insert or delete.
Assignment: Please use the three datasets given to individually complete the following assignment.  Please do not forget to give your tables and charts titles that explain the dataset and label all axes on your graphs. You only need to turn in the graphs and tables.
Datasets: Your excel has three tabs, one for each of the datasets below.
Nest Depredation
Create a table that shows the average number of nests depredated by nest type on Day 4, Day 8 and Day 12
Create a graph that shows how nest predation differed by nest type
Sacramento Mountain Salamander
Create a graph that depicts how the number of salamanders on the surface varied with % humidity.
Chihuahuan Desert Vegetation Variables
Create a graph that compares % Canopy Cover (%CC), % Bare Ground (%BG) and % Grass for both habitat types.
Create two pie charts to compare % Grass, %BG and % CC for edge vs center plots – to do this you will need to average %CC,%BG and % Grass for each plot.
