authorization), libraries, data warehouses (with consent from the owner), public sources like the U.S.
Census Bureau or the CIA, etc. You will include a link to where you found your dataset in two places of
your paper (Cover Page under your name and in the first sentence in A description of the Nature of the
Data),

enough information to analyze for an 7 page paper. You may find larger datasets which is OK. In the
case of exceptionally large datasets, you will filter your dataset down to a manageable size.
3. You are to analyze the data and glean from the data some meaningful, insightful, and significant results
and trends that help your respective research area’s decision-making process. You are free to use any of
the analytical tools covered in class, and beyond that, you learned independently.

central tendency and variations, correlation, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, chi-square
test, ANOVA, and linear regression. These skills you acquired via the projects that you worked on
before undertaking this assignment.
