You wouldn’t think a P.E. teacher would do much math, but I actually do math on a weekly basis. Calculating the amount of time spent on task analysis, the percentage of time out of class, and the percentage of time met over a yearly program are just some of the things I do regularly.
I use Microsoft Excel for doing most of my math for my job. But I recently discovered some free online tools that could save me a lot of time. EZAnalyze is one online tool that bypasses a lot of steps of an Excel spreadsheet to calculate standard deviations, mean, medians, mode, and grafting data. Analyze-It is another tool that can calculate ANOVA and chi-squared by simply pressing an equation button. OZGRID is another free program that has the added benefit of 24/7 tech support, which can come in handy when working on something at the last minute (we’ve all pulled an all-nighter at some point).
Another thing I liked about these programs is how easy it is to create graphs of data. I’ve never had much luck with Excel graphs beyond bar or data plots. But these programs (EZAnalyze, Analyze-It, and OZGRID) are great for creating graphs you can plug into a report or presenta
