Paper For Above instruction

The assignment requires creating a comprehensive Google Sheets document that demonstrates foundational skills in spreadsheet design, data entry, formatting, sharing, and data protection. The process begins with opening a new Google Sheet and saving it with a specified naming convention, then methodically building out multiple sheets with designated content, formatting, and protective measures. This project not only tests familiarity with Google Sheets functionalities but also emphasizes organization, clarity, and security in data handling. By completing these tasks, the team leader will be able to effectively track and present team contacts, expenses, project notes, and strategic planning elements, fostering efficient team management and better decision-making.

The first sheet, titled “Team Contacts,” will contain team member details such as name, phone number, and email addresses, requiring careful formatting for readability and professionalism. The second sheet, “Q4 Team Expenses,” will log team expenses across three months, necessitating accurate data entry, currency formatting, and access restrictions to prevent unintended edits. The third sheet, “Upcoming Project Notes,” involves merging cells, naming ranges, inserting hyperlinks, and setting up a SWOT analysis template with shaded columns for strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, facilitating strategic planning discussions. These tasks collectively enhance students’ proficiency with Google Sheets' core features, preparing them for effective data management in professional contexts.
