  1. Using Scroll Bars to Create Interactive Spreadsheets Martha Lietz AAPT National Meeting Boise, ID August 6, 2002 marlie@niles-hs.k12.il.us

  2. Overview • How to create scroll bars in Excel • Examples of scroll bars • RL circuits • standing waves • kinematics • Worksheet to go with kinematics graphs spreadsheet

  3. How to use scroll bars • Click on View menu,Toolbars ,Forms • Formatting the Scroll Bar • cell link • zero minimum • integer incremental change • page change • Creating a simple position vs. time graph

  4. Specific Scrollbar Spreadsheets • Standing Waves • two identical waves passing each other and their sum • RL Circuits • resistor and inductor in a series circuit • total current • total voltage, voltage across inductor and voltage across resistor

  5. Specific Scrollbar Spreadsheets • Kinematics Graphs • d vs. t (constant velocity) • v vs. t (constant acceleration) • d vs. t (constant acceleration)

  6. Worksheet Activity • Used in Regular Physics, but accessible to higher levels as well • Explores relationships between graphs and kinematics equations • Took 35-40 minutes with each student on a computer. • Initial velocity on d vs. t (a  0) is the most difficult

  7. How to get Activities • http://www.niles-hs.k12.il.us/west/science/marlie/ExcelActivities.zip • Kinematics Graphs Worksheet(.doc and .pdf) • Kinematics Graphs Spreadsheet • Standing Wave Sum Spreadsheet
