Many technology companies have joined hands, making it easy to study and meet, such as Zoom Cloud Meeting, Microsoft Teams, Google Meeting ... I myself have used all these 3 services. And I appreciate the simplicity and ease of use of the Zoom Cloud Meeting. Microsoft Teams and Google Meeting really took me a lot of time, and it was tiring to invite members to the online meeting. Especially when it was a brand new person, I had never known or connected to them before.

Despite these days, the community is raising doubts about the security and honesty of Zoom. There have been reports of teachers saying their online lessons have been disturbed. There are strangers and bad guys taking part in online lessons, making noise, making graffiti, sending erotic materials, even sharing sex video screens to the whole class. That made the lesson pause. Even the Singaporean government has issued a regulation banning the use of the Zoom Cloud Meeting in online teaching for students.

Upon digging in, I realized that all of these incidents were caused by the teacher - who organized the online lesson - not really taking full advantage of Zoom's security options. Those customizations are very simple and you can do it in less than 3 minutes. And then, your online teaching with Zoom is really simple and effective.

So in this book, I will guide you:

1.    How to sign up for a new Zoom account, to ensure maximum privacy. Completely separate Zoom from your other accounts, such as Email, Facebook, Twitter, Paypal...

2.    How to set customizations so that when you - a teacher - organize an online lesson, it will be impossible for strangers to scribble, send sex photos, send sex files, share sex screens in your online classroom.

3.    The outstanding benefits of the Zoom help your business grow faster on the Internet.

I believe that, after my tutorial, you will confidently use Zoom and really loved it.

Let's get started!

엑셀 책을 두어 권 정도 사서 공부도 해보고 엑셀 자격증도 땄지만, 정작 실제 업무에서는 비효율적인 단순 작업을 반복하고 있는 사람이라면 누구든지 <친절한 엑셀>의 삽질 방지 3단계가 필요하다. 삽질 방지 1단계에서는 친절하게 엑셀의 기본 원리를 설명한다. 엑셀 2007에서 엑셀 2016까지 모든 버전에 적용되는 엑셀의 기본 원리를 소설 읽듯이 읽다 보면 다양한 서식이나 함수, 데이터베이스 같은 기능도 쉽게 이해하고 응용할 수 있다. 삽질 방지 2단계로 넘어가면 셀을 신속하게 선택하는 방법, 셀을 서식으로 효율적으로 꾸미는 방법, 숫자나 문자 등을 데이터 유형에 맞게 정리하는 방법, 꼭 알아야 할 함수, 직관적인 차트 사용 방법, 정렬, 필터, 부분합, 피벗 테이블과 같은 엑셀의 핵심 기능을 실습을 통해 습득한다. 길고 지루한 예제 실습 과정을 줄여 엑셀의 단순 기능을 익히는 것을 뛰어넘어 실무 문제 해결 능력을 키워 준다. 마지막으로 삽질 방지 3단계의 확인 문제를 하나씩 체크하면서, 앞 단계에서 배운 내용을 실무에서 제대로 적용할 수 있는지 스스로 파악할 수 있다. 이제 <세상에서 제일 친절한 엑셀>로 자신의 엑셀 실력을 업그레이드해보자.

어떤 독자를 위한 책인가?

• 꼭 필요하고 활용도가 높은 엑셀 기능만 빠르게 배우려는 사람

• 엑셀 문서 작성에 어려움을 겪고 있는 직장인

• 취업을 앞둔 대학생

• 엑셀 책을 1,2권 보고 공부했지만 엑셀 실력이 별로 향상되지 않는 사람

이 책의 특징 

① 완독 가능 – 소설처럼 술술 읽힌다

대부분의 엑셀 책은 단순 기능을 열거하거나, 난해한 실무 문서를 만드는 복잡한 실습 순서로 이루어져 있다. 그러나 이 책은 컴퓨터 앞에 앉아 엑셀을 실행할 필요 없이 단순히 책만 읽어도 첫 페이지부터 마지막 페이지까지 이해할 수 있도록 쉽게 설명했다. 버스나 지하철을 타고 다니면서 훑어봐도 어떻게 학습해야 할지 감을 잡을 수 있다.

② 삽질 방지 – 효율적인 작업 방식을 알려준다

한 가지 엑셀 업무를 가지고 2~3시간씩 소요한다면 분명 작업 방법에 문제가 있기 마련이다. 이 책에서는 직장인들이 단순 반복 작업으로 꾸역꾸역 처리하곤 하는 작업을 간편하게 끝낼 수 있는 효율적인 기법 위주로 엑셀 기능을 설명한다. 이 책의 실습만 숙지하면 실무에서 2시간 걸릴 작업을 30분으로 줄일 수 있다.

③ 평생 기억 - 책을 덮어도 까먹지 않는다

몇 가지 기능을 무작정 따라 해도 책을 덮으면 막상 필요할 때는 기억이 잘 나지 않는다. 이 책은 옆에서 선생님이 알려 주듯 기본 원리를 친절하게 설명한다. 그런 다음에 한두 가지의 기법을 실습으로 배운 원리를 적용한다. 그리고 각 CHAPTER마다 있는 확인 문제를 스스로 해결하면서 자신의 엑셀 실력을 자가 진단하고, 막히는 부분이 있으면 각 문제에 표시된 페이지로 되돌아가 설명을 참조하고 정답 예제 파일과 대조해 보면 엑셀의 원리와 기능이 머릿속에 쏙쏙 박힌다
