High school students become marketing executives of an amusement park. This challenging job has them use Microsoft Office to complete a wide range of job duties. They use Word to create a poster and animal exhibit sign, Excel to graph survey results regarding a new attraction, PowerPoint to produce a video, Publisher to design an invitation for an exclusive event, and Access to analyze park data. Review questions, skill reviews, and extension activities challenge students. TechnoWonderland Microsoft Office lesson plans hook student interest!
