Statistics Final project
-
Students create a survey and administer it.
- With their data from the surveys, they use statistical concepts from class to analyze the data.
- They present findings using the most convincing data to argue for change.
Research
Students found programs at other schools, non-profit and/or community based organizations that related to their data as recommendations for the college. In some instances, students developed programs from their own ideas.
Presentation is shared with appropriate individual on campus. What is done with the presentation by the educator is unknown.
