We chose our topic, mcdonald's, because of the fact that Mcdonal'ds is one of the biggest fast food organizations in the world. Many of the other topics we could have chosen were very impactful to a certain country or even bigger than that but they weren't as impactful as mcdonald's was on the world in our eyes. McDonald has 34,480 restaurants in 119 different countries in the world and it is the biggest global food chain in the world. We also chose this topic to see where the roots of mcdonald's first came from. everyone knows what mcdonald's is but not everyone can say where it originated from or how the company spread to such a big organization. We wanted to find this out.
How we conducted our research
we conducted our research through a number of online sources and articles we found off the internet. One of the main websites we actually used was mcdonald's very own website. We used a timeline showing how mcdonald developed over the years.
How we created and developed our website
We created and developed our website by using the website Weebly.com. This source was provided by the National History Day website. First, we chose a theme from the possible ones the website provided and then the font we wanted to use. We then added pictures, information we researched about mcdonald's and the website was complete. We chose this format for our project because we love working on computer-based programs and trying to create something from nothing. It was amazing to see how each piece came together like a jigsaw puzzle and our mcdonald's website was complete.
How our project relates to the theme
Our project relates to the theme because we are writing about the globalization of mcdonald's, which started from a local barbeque restaurant. it Then developed into the largest fast food chain in the world. The founders started a local restaurant and made it much more than anyone could have ever hoped for. (339 words)
