Summary

We created a spreadsheet in Google Documents where people could post their names and the number of balloons left after playing a game of Poppit. We found that the average out come of balloons left after a game was about 18.5 balloons left

Story

In order to distribute the spreadsheet to the multiple people in our class we had to send the Google documents spreadsheet to our instructor. We created an incentive of giving point to students for the number of games they reported to us. For every 10 game a student reported to us we gave one point with a max number of games was set at 200. We then took the Average of of all the data recorded and came out with 18.5 balloons left

Decision List

We had to decide how we were going to compile the data from the students. We talked about just entering the data manually from paper handed to us. Then we decided to make a Google Documents spreadsheet which enables us to share the spreadsheet with everyone over the internet and anyone could access it from anywhere.

Material List

Computer

Software List

Google Documents, Canvas, Poppit

Time

20 minutes to create spreadsheet and share it with the class, and about a minute per game played

Tutorials

Make New spread sheet for people to enter data when using the tips and software rest of class came up with see if their is an increase in the average of balloons left.

Next Steps

Use chunked info from other teams and any software created to help to see if it improves the average
