Description: Students use the $1000 Windfall example in their handout, and  create their own data set of Items and Costs – must have between 6 and 8 items. Use the charts options in MS Excel to generate a 3D PIE chart based on the data in the handout. Students must show data value by using the “labels” option from their “Toolbox”.

They then copy and paste the chart to an MS Word file (shown in the example). They need to use standard reporting page set-up with a header, title and indented paragraphs with 1.5-2 line spacing. They must write an introductory paragraph, show the data table, and write a summary paragraph that extrapolates and describes at least 2 pieces of data shown in the table.

Windfall

Reflection: I think I did very good on this assignment because I took the time and used the tools that I learned about. I really think that these data bases are really fun to make especially when I learn knew things.
