Description
SUGAR AND FAST FOOD: A MICROSOFT EXCEL PROJECT is a highly engaging project that enables students to learn the sugar and calorie content of their favorite fast food meals and practice Microsoft Excel skills.
Students are asked to pick five of their favorite fast food restaurants and plan a lunch/dinner menu at each one. Students will then do a web search to collect calories and sugar gram content of each of their meal choices. They will then be instructed to create a workbook with restaurant labeled worksheets. On each restaurant worksheet students will create a spreadsheet to list their menu items to analyze the sugar and calorie content of each item, and to then to analyze the total calorie and sugar content of the meal they have chosen.
As a final step, students are instructed to choose the meal that has the highest sugar content and to revise it so that sugar is no more than 10% of their total meal calories.
