In this exciting web-based word processing simulation, students complete a series of real-world projects that owners, Tim and Tara Flaherty, request for the day-to-day operation of their business, Fundae Sundaes. These self-paced projects simulate real-world tasks that bring learning to life by engaging students in a theme that everyone loves—ice cream!
Fundae Sundaes is a family-owned and operated homemade ice cream shop located in a busy college town on the outskirts of New York City. The friendly staff, cool atmosphere, and spectacular flavors make Fundae Sundaes the 'go to' place when it comes to hanging out with friends and indulging in the best homemade ice cream the area has to offer.
