Interactive Excel based Gantt Chart Schedule BuilderAbstractMany scheduling dispatching rules are intuitive and processes which people utilize in everyday life. As an example, when faced with a variety of tasks due at different times one oftenimplements the earliest due date scheduling rule: the next task worked on is the one with theearliest due date.

This paper presents an Interactive Excel basedGantt Chart Schedule Builder which enables students to experiment with building schedules fordifferent single and parallel machine problem instances. Instead of explicitly telling studentsthese common scheduling rules, the Schedule Builder enables students to discover the rules ontheir own.
