=== A2: Data analysis === For this exercise, you will design and execute the analysis that you proposed in A1. You must attempt to answer to the questions you posed using your new data science skills, but you must also practice a kind of "meta-analysis" of your analysis to understand limitations and potential consequences of your analysis. Turn in a report of about 1500 words with about equal space dedicated to: * Presenting your analysis: what did you do and what did you find out? Communicate your findings though using at least one chart or table. * Explaining the significance of your analysis to the (real or hypothetical) organization or community that will make use of it. Why should we care about this analysis? * Critique of the analysis in terms of both what you did and how it might be used. How might your analysis improve through better data or analysis? What assumptions underlie your interpretation of it? How might (or might not) this analysis influence or mislead its audiences? ==== Evaluation and Rubric ==== :''Presentation of data analysis:'' 40% :''Appropriate chart or table:'' 5% :''Explanation of applicability to community or organization:'' 20% :''Critique in terms of improving the analysis :'' 10% :''Critique in terms of application :'' 10% :''Writing quality (see [[User:Benjamin Mako Hill/Assessment#Writing Rubric | the writing rubric]]): 15%''
