descriptive statistics and visualize their data set using a contemporary statistical software. Students will write a 1-2 page summary of their data collection, statistical methods, and findings, outlining

In this assignment, students will be asked to create a data set based on their observations of a real-life phenomenon. Some examples include minutes played by each athlete during a sports game, age of Canadian astronauts, weights of food in your house, daily temperatures over a certain period, etc. Students will conduct descriptive statistics and visualize their data set using a contemporary statistical software. Students will write a 1-2 page summary of their data collection, statistical methods, and findings, outlining:

• Minimum of 50 measurements/observations included in the data set*
• How data was collected (include specific details so someone else could reproduce your collection method, including website links)
• The type of data collected (level of measurement and sampling strategy)
• Descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode, standard deviation, and interquartile range)
• Appropriate visualization of the data (i.e. via a figure that you learned about in Module 02)
• Figure description
• Interpretation of findings
