5 INTRODUCTION Teacher/Lecturer Notes The aim of this pack is to provide exemplar spreadsheet questions for student use. The pack, which targets both Intermediate 2 and Higher Levels, will permit students to gain further experience in the use of spreadsheets. The structured questions in the pack are designed to allow students to progress from Intermediate 2 to Higher where appropriate. The first section of the pack contains the student questions split into separate tasks with exemplar spreadsheet templates and formulae worksheets. The final section contains comprehensive solutions for each question including spreadsheet and formulae worksheets. It is suggested that where software facilities permit, students should be encouraged to print the embedded formulae in preference to completing a formulae worksheet. This pack will be provided on CD ROM to enable users to customise questions to suit their individual client group requirements.
