The suggested tweet for this book is: Learn everything you need to become a spreadsheet expert with @zapier’s Ultimate Guide to Google Sheets: http://zpr.io/uBw4 It’s easy enough to list your expenses in a spreadsheet, use =sum(A1:A20) to see how much you spent, and add a graph to compare your expenses. It’s also easy to use a spreadsheet to deeply analyze your numbers, assist in research, and automate your work—but it seems a lot more tricky.

But where do you start if you’ve never used a spreadsheet—or if you’re a spreadsheet professional, where do you dig in to create advanced workflows and build macros to automate your work? Here’s the guide for you. We’ll take you from beginner to expert, show you how to get started with spreadsheets, create advanced spreadsheet-powered dashboard, use spreadsheets for more than numbers, build powerful macros to automate your work, and more.

  • O. Zymovets, Teacher Zhytomyr Ivan Franko State University USING GOOGLE APPLICATIONS in the PROCESS of PROSPECTIVE FOREIGN LANGU
    O. Zymovets, Teacher Zhytomyr Ivan Franko State University USING GOOGLE APPLICATIONS IN THE PROCESS OF PROSPECTIVE FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHERS’ PROFESSIONAL TRAINING Nowadays using Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is an urgent necessity in teaching process. Various educational programs on CD-ROMs, Internet recourses, authoring tools, online tests and other electronic materials help FL teachers to make lessons more exciting, modern, interactive and efficient. That is why a modern FL teacher should possess the skills connected with using ICT in the classroom as well as other fundamental professional skills: cognitive, project, constructive, organizational and communicative [1, p. 151]. The formation of prospective FL teachers’ professional skills can be performed in the process of studying various academic disciplines at the university such as Methods of Teaching English, Practical Course of the English Language, English Language (for professional purposes), etc. Taking into account the fact that ICT is one of the effective means of forming professional skills, we think it necessary to integrate ICT into the university courses mentioned above. The aim of the article is to describe the benefits of using such means of ICT as Google Applications (Apps) in the process of prospective FL teachers’ professional training. First, it should be noted that there are a lot of Google products that can be used in all spheres of human life including everyday activities, education, business, communication, rest, etc. Google products include web apps (Web search, Bookmarks, Google Chrome), specialized search apps (Custom Search, Trends, Scholar), home & office apps (Gmail, Docs, Slides, Drawings, Calendar, Hangouts, Sheets, Forms, Sites, Translate, Drive), social apps (Google+, Groups, Blogger), geo apps (Maps, Earth), media apps (Books, News, Image Search, Video Search), business apps (G Suite, AdMob, AdSense) and Mobile apps (Mobile, Search for mobile, Maps for mobile) [2].

  • What They Search, What They Find: Improving Your Google
    What they search, what they find: improving your Google ranking 8th Professional Seminar on Church Communication Offices Pontifical University of the Holy Cross - Rome 2012-04-16 Michele Crudele www.crudele.it Director Associazione Centro ELIS www.elis.org ABSTRACT Understanding how Google ranks a website is the first step to improve its position. Most of the time the problem is a lack of focus on the keywords that people use to reach the content we are providing over the Internet. The site name, the titles and the content are the most important tools to improve the ranking. They come before any other means, like references from important websites. A common mistake is the lack of common words in favour of academic terms, much less searched by users. Being the first with a keyword that nobody uses, is a failure. Mobile content needs a special attention to attract users. SCENARIO This is not a SEO (Search Engine Optimization) crash course. It is more about strategies and some techniques: most of all is about awareness. You have to realize which is your potential in promoting your idea or your message. I am not dealing with marketing of products, as the majority of you are in charge of communication offices in Catholic institutions: you are not selling anything but you want to spread words related to a Word. The present hype is all about social networks. However, many forget that we are still far from abandoning the traditional way of access to information over the Internet: a search engine that outputs web pages.

  • THE MYTH of PLATFORM NEUTRALITY Anupam Chander* and Vivek Krishnamurthy** CITE AS: 2 GEO
    GEORGETOWN LAW TECHNOLOGY REVIEW THE MYTH OF PLATFORM NEUTRALITY Anupam Chander* and Vivek Krishnamurthy** CITE AS: 2 GEO. L. TECH. REV. 400 (2018) INTRODUCTION In 1986, science and technology studies scholar Langdon Winner wrote, “The issues that divide or unite people in society are settled not only in the institutions and practices of politics proper, but also, and less obviously, in tangible arrangements of steel and concrete, wires and transistors, nuts and bolts.”1 To that list, we might add the algorithms, data structures, and policies of Silicon Valley. Yet, the myth that online platforms are neutral pervades the tech industry. Indeed, “[t]his notion that Facebook is an open, neutral platform is almost like a religious tenet inside the company.”2 That is the conclusion of the editor-in-chief and contributing editor of Wired magazine upon interviewing fifty-one current and former employees of the world’s biggest social network company. Facebook is hardly alone in insisting on its neutrality.3 This is a typical ethos of information platforms *Professor of Law, Georgetown University Law Center. A.B. Harvard; J.D. Yale.

  • Engineering an Election
    ENGINEERING AN ELECTION Jonathan Zittrain∗ Marvin Ammori has offered a nuanced and persuasive paean to the lawyers of such firms as Twitter and Google, who helped to translate the values of free speech into the online environment during a decade when both the applicable legal principles and technologies were new and evolving.1 The work of these firms to defend open expression has dovetailed with their function of pairing information producers and consumers. But what happens should the interests of the firms and their customers diverge? Consider a hypothetical involving a phenomenon I call “digital ger- rymandering,” grounded in a real, and fascinating, empirical study fa- cilitated through Facebook. In late 2010, Facebook enjoyed about one hundred million visitors a day from North America.2 On November 2nd, sixty million of those visitors were subject to an ambitious exper- iment: could Facebook get them to cast a vote in that day’s U.S. con- gressional mid-term elections when they wouldn’t otherwise have gone to the polls?3 The answer was yes. Many of those millions of Facebook users were shown a graphic within their news feeds with a link to find their polling place, a button to click to say that they’d voted, and the profile pictures of up to six of their friends who had indicated they’d already voted. Other users weren’t shown the graphic. Then, in an awesome feat of data- crunching, the researchers cross-referenced everyone’s name with the day’s actual voting records from precincts across the country. That way they could see if, on average, someone in the group receiving the voting prompt was more likely to mark a ballot than someone with an untouched news feed.

  • Images of Gender Arrangements of Three American Social Organizations: a Content Analysis of Top Ranked Google Images of Individuals Preforming Organizational Roles
    IMAGES OF GENDER ARRANGEMENTS OF THREE AMERICAN SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS: A CONTENT ANALYSIS OF TOP RANKED GOOGLE IMAGES OF INDIVIDUALS PREFORMING ORGANIZATIONAL ROLES by SCOTT E. VELASQUEZ B.S., Kansas State University, 2000 M.A., Kansas State University, 2002 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Sociology, Anthropology and Social Work College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2016 Abstract This study explores existing beliefs and often unspoken social structural arrangements related to male privileges by examining three different, but rather important, American social organizations—the NFL, U.S. military and higher education institutions. With queries from the Google image database, I analyzed images for themes from search terms of organizations thereby tapping into the consciences of society. Since a high volume of images are produced by Google Image search, a maximum of 25 results of each search term are included as potential sources of images for this study. The primary category of non-specific gender search terms of Google images are: NFL Players, U.S. soldiers, and college students. In addition, this study also utilized a subset category of gender and sexuality specific Google search terms that are related to the primary category search terms. The subset category of gender and sexuality specific Google search terms of images are: women of the NFL, NFL gay players, U.S. female soldiers, U.S. gay soldiers, college volleyball players, and fraternity life. Both the U.S. military and the NFL presented images of men preforming competitive or aggressive activities that can be defined as masculine labors.
