A stand alone lesson or a great introduction to a variety of topics - using Fortnite trackers as a (worryingly successful) hook.
Includes:
Business Studies: Mini-Business Case study of Epic Games and it’s unique business model + comparisons to others
ICT: Excel formulas, SUM, AVERAGE, adding charts, calculating % increases and using conditional formatting.
Maths: Understanding and practice of % increases
Features stretch activities and literacy questions, literacy and numeracy settler activity, peer assessments and a plenary quiz.
Excel features demonstrated in a series of video clips (embedded in the PowerPoint).
~ Every time my students were given a chance they’d be checking their stats on Fortnite tracker - I figure if pupils are interested in stats this is too good an opportunity to pass up. If you can’t beat them - join 'em.
