In this activity, you will create a spreadsheet to track the tasks necessary to make your
event a success.
Depending on your event, you might have to: Find a location
Set up equipment Decorate
Make advertisements Publicize
Or order food.
You might know that spreadsheets can be used to analyze data.
But you can also use them for a variety of other tasks.
For example, you could: Create a budget
A schedule
A time sheet
Or a roster for a sports team.
You could start with a *blank* spreadsheet for any of these,
but Google Sheets also provides *templates"
A template keeps you from having to start from scratch *every time* you make a spreadsheet.
For this activity, you’ll use the “To Do List” template
and adapt it to fit your needs
Within this template, you’ll: organize information,
add and sort columns, and copy and paste formatting.
To start, go to Google. com and open Google Drive.
Select a new Google Sheets template.
Google frequently adds new templates, so don’t worry if the list you see looks different
from the one here.
Find and select “To Do List.”
Name the spreadsheet “Event To Do List.”
Then, move on to the next video where you’ll learn some basic spreadsheet terminology.
Now, it’s your turn:
Open the to do list template in Google Sheets.
Name the sheet “Event To Do List.”
Then, click the “Next Arrow” to move on.
