Microsoft Excel is the standard for spreadsheet creation and data manipulation.

The   Excel are designed to help create formulas in Excel and understand the software at all levels. Help to learn to create a spreadsheet, use functions and formulas, create a pivot table, and much more.

(Drawing population pyramids)

This spreadsheet explains the process of constructing beautiful population pyramids!

(Creating a Climograph in Excel)

Excel can be a bit intimidating for novices, but confidence in the use of spreadsheets is really important for my students.

These lessons may also be used with PRB's online DataFinder, a searchable database that includes all the data from the most recent World Population Data Sheet. Data can be displayed as a map, chart, or table, and downloaded into Excel.

Google Earth can help us bring a world of information alive for our students. Google Earth are a fun and visual way to help students understand geography concepts, map reading, location, and distance measurement. Students can use Google Earth to explore topics like the progress of human civilization, the growth of cities, the impact of civilization on the natural environment, and the impact of natural disasters.

Last year I used  Google Map  demos to get my  students been  excited about geography beyond the static map and   i used  different Google Map layers to study transportation, demographics, economics, and in specific local or exotic contexts.

The activities with apps help us deliver outstanding lessons to our students. These apps will help the students to learn our subjects easy and creatively .
