$1000 Windfall
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.
Reflection-
This project we started another database. In excel we made a chart with two columns. The two columns were items and costs. After we started with a basic chart we turned it into a 3D pie chart. After that we turned it into a word.doc and I described what it was. The last thing I did was upload it to my ePortfolio. I think I did pretty good because its my third database.
