|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 📋 Overview
|
|
||||||
This guide will walk you through completing the pivot table activities using LibreOffice Calc. You'll learn how to create pivot tables, analyze data, and troubleshoot common issues.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 🎯 Activities Checklist
|
|
||||||
- **Activity 1:** Manual Data Analysis Challenge (10 minutes)
|
|
||||||
- **Activity 2:** Create Your First Pivot Table
|
|
||||||
- **Activity 3:** Recreate Example Pivot Tables (1C and 1B)
|
|
||||||
- **Activity 4:** Advanced Analysis with Data Set 2
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 🚀 Getting Started
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Step 1: Download and Open the Spreadsheet
|
|
||||||
1. Download the file: Pivot tables and advanced filtering (XLSX)
|
|
||||||
2. Open the file in LibreOffice Calc
|
|
||||||
3. Make sure you're using LibreOffice version 6.0 or higher
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 📊 Activity 1: The Manual Challenge (Learning Hook)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### What to Do:
|
|
||||||
- Go to the Data 1 worksheet tab
|
|
||||||
- DO NOT USE PIVOT TABLES for this activity
|
|
||||||
- Manually calculate for each actor:
|
|
||||||
- How many episodes they appeared in
|
|
||||||
- Their total earnings
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Step-by-Step:
|
|
||||||
1. **Sort the data:**
|
|
||||||
- Select columns A-F (including headers)
|
|
||||||
- Go to Data → Sort
|
|
||||||
- Sort by "Surname" (Column A)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. **Count episodes manually:**
|
|
||||||
- For each surname, count how many rows appear
|
|
||||||
- Write this in a new column or separate sheet
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. **Sum earnings manually:**
|
|
||||||
- For each actor, add up all values in the "Earnings" column
|
|
||||||
- Double-check your calculations
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### ⏱️ Time: 10 minutes
|
|
||||||
**Reflection Questions:**
|
|
||||||
- How many potential errors did you make?
|
|
||||||
- How tedious was this process?
|
|
||||||
- How would this scale with 1,000 rows of data?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 🔧 Activity 2: Create Your First Pivot Table
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Step 5: Verify Results
|
|
||||||
- Compare your pivot table results with the example in Pivot table 1A
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 📈 Activity 3: Recreate Example Pivot Tables
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Task 3A: Recreate Pivot Table 1C
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 🎓 Activity 4: Advanced Analysis (Data Set 2)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Step 1: Navigate to Data Set 2
|
|
||||||
- Go to Data 2 worksheet
|
|
||||||
- Familiarize yourself with the columns:
|
|
||||||
- Subject, Session Type, Completed, etc.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Challenge 4A: Subject Completion Analysis
|
|
||||||
1. Select all data in Data 2
|
|
||||||
2. Create a new pivot table
|
|
||||||
3. Configure:
|
|
||||||
- Rows: Subject
|
|
||||||
- Columns: Completed (Yes/No)
|
|
||||||
- Data: Count - Completed
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Challenge 4B: Detailed Session Analysis
|
|
||||||
1. Create another pivot table from Data 2
|
|
||||||
2. Configure:
|
|
||||||
- Rows: Subject
|
|
||||||
- Columns: Session Type
|
|
||||||
- Data: Count - Session Type
|
|
||||||
- Data: Count - Completed
|
|
||||||
3. Hint: You might need to add "Session Type" twice to get both calculations
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## ⚠️ Troubleshooting: Cells Not Auto-Recalculating
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Problem: Pivot table doesn't update when source data changes
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Solution 1: Manual Refresh
|
|
||||||
- Right-click anywhere in the pivot table
|
|
||||||
- Select Refresh or Recalculate Pivot Table
|
|
||||||
- Or use shortcut: F9 or Shift+F9
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Solution 2: Check Calculation Settings
|
|
||||||
- Go to Tools → Options → LibreOffice Calc → Formula
|
|
||||||
- Ensure AutoCalculate is checked
|
|
||||||
- Under "Formula options", make sure:
|
|
||||||
- ☑ Automatically find dependencies
|
|
||||||
- ☑ Use OpenCL for formula calculation (if available)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Solution 3: Force Complete Recalculation
|
|
||||||
- Press Ctrl+Shift+F9 - This forces a complete recalculation of all formulas
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Solution 4: Check Data Range
|
|
||||||
- Right-click the pivot table → Edit Layout
|
|
||||||
- Verify the Source data range is correct
|
|
||||||
- If you added new rows/columns to your source data:
|
|
||||||
- Edit the data range to include them
|
|
||||||
- Or recreate the pivot table with the new range
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Solution 5: Pivot Table Corruption
|
|
||||||
- If nothing works:
|
|
||||||
- Copy your source data to a new sheet
|
|
||||||
- Create a brand new pivot table
|
|
||||||
- Reconfigure it from scratch
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 💡 Pro Tips for Success
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Tip 1: Naming Your Pivot Tables
|
|
||||||
- Right-click the sheet tab
|
|
||||||
- Rename it meaningfully:
|
|
||||||
- "Pivot_Subject_Analysis"
|
|
||||||
- "Pivot_Earnings_Summary"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Tip 2: Formatting for Readability
|
|
||||||
- Select the pivot table
|
|
||||||
- Use Format → AutoFormat for quick styling
|
|
||||||
- Adjust number formats:
|
|
||||||
- Right-click currency values → Format Cells → Currency
|
|
||||||
- Right-click counts → Format Cells → Number
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Tip 3: Saving Your Work
|
|
||||||
- Save frequently as .ods (LibreOffice format)
|
|
||||||
- If sharing with Excel users, also Save As → .xlsx
|
|
||||||
- Consider saving pivot tables as separate files for different analyses
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Tip 4: Documenting Your Process
|
|
||||||
- Create a "Notes" sheet in your workbook
|
|
||||||
- Document:
|
|
||||||
- What each pivot table shows
|
|
||||||
- Why you chose that configuration
|
|
||||||
- Any insights discovered
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 🔍 Checking Your Work
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Compare your results with the example sheets:
|
|
||||||
- Pivot table 1A: Basic actor summary
|
|
||||||
- Pivot table 1B: Alternative view
|
|
||||||
- Pivot table 1C: Different arrangement
|
|
||||||
- Pivot table 2A: Subject completion analysis
|
|
||||||
- Pivot table 2B: Detailed session analysis
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note: Your teacher may hide the example sheets. If they're hidden, focus on whether your pivot tables provide meaningful insights.

## 🆘 Getting Help
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Common Issues and Solutions:
|
|
||||||
| Problem | Solution |
|
|
||||||
|--------|---------|

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 📚 Learning Reflection
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
After completing all activities, ask yourself:
|
|
||||||
- What was the most valuable insight you gained from pivot tables?
|
|
||||||
- How much time did pivot tables save compared to manual analysis?
|
|
||||||
- What real-world data would you like to analyze with pivot tables?
|
|
||||||
- What configuration was most challenging to create?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
