Our students are working hard to design a food truck that is appealing and profitable. In order to price each item, students need to analyze real class data. They need choose items to sell, 3D design a logo, and use survey data to create a menu with prices that people would actually buy! There is lots of good conversation and analysis going on!! This will be the final assessment for our statistics unit.
