Excel
PleaseĀ work thru at least the first 18/19 lessons of theĀ Excel 2013Ā /Ā Excel 2016 introductory tutorial (not specific to statistics). The rest of the tutorials are useful, but I would consider more advanced than what we need for the class. [For those who will be using mainly MS Office 2007 or 2010, there are similarĀ tutorials on the same site.] At the beginning ofĀ sessionĀ 2, you will be have to do some writingĀ on this material. Here is a self-quiz to see if you are ready.
excelnotesĀ andĀ excel2010_statsĀ areĀ guides more specific to statistics.
