Please can I get some help with my Math Project Structured External Assignment Project with Presentation MAT308 MAT312 Statistics Purpose The Structured External Assignment gives you the opportunity to apply and master the following objectives (WU Graduation Competencies) Identify, select, and use sampling collection techniques (Make Decisions and Problem Solve) Identify and classify variables Transform data into visual forms that clearly tells a story to the end user using Excel (Information and Technology) Calculate and discuss descriptive statistics using Excel (Information and Technology) Analyze and solve complex, real world problems using statistical methods, specifically by using hypothesis tests (Information and Technology, Make Decisions and Problem Solve) Communicate methodologies and analyses effectively for diverse professional contexts (Use Oral and Written Communication) Process The Structured External Assignment is a multi step project that you will work on in the second half of the semester It consists of five parts topic selection, proposal, data collection, presentation, and written report Your chosen topic will be the central theme for all subsequent parts of the SEA Each part of the SEA builds on the previous part Therefore,it is in your best interest to complete each part on time, using your instructor's feedback from the previous part to inform the next part Topic (10 points) Select a topic that interests you then create a unique research question you want to answer about your topic using a hypothesis test we will study in this course (Consider the chart on the next page to identify an appropriate hypothesis test for your project Students in MAT308 do not study ANOVA, while students in MAT312 do study ANOVA) Keep in mind that you must be able to collect data to answer your question Data must be collected from publicly available, reliable internet sites or from a survey that you have created Experiments on humans or animals are not permitted (Students who are repeating the course must select a new topic) You may find it beneficial to develop your topic by reviewing available data on the following websites Trading Economics, US Bureau of Labor Statistics, US Census Bureau, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Office of Homeland Security, American Progress (type data in search bar), Our World in Data, AAA, ESPN, MLB, NBA, NFL, etc Proposal Your proposal must be submitted to Canvas as a Microsoft Office Word document It must address the following items Statement of research question and rationale State your research question Then provide a rationale for your research question For example How could answering your research question impact you, other students, coworkers, society, etc How does answering this question add to research that has already been completed on this topic (You may want to research your topic to provide a solid rationale ) Statement of variables In statistics, variables are the categories or groups you are studying You will need to specify and classify your variables For example, if you are comparing incomes between men and women, your variables are quantitative continuous (income) and categorical nominal (gender) If you are comparing quarterback completion rates, your variables are quantitative continuous (completion rates) and quantitative interval (years) Statement of population and sampling method State your population, that is, the larger group from which you are drawing your sample For example, perhaps your overall population includes incomes for men and women from the United States, but your convenience sample consists of data from work colleagues that you surveyed Or perhaps your overall population includes all NFL quarterback pass completion rates, but your systematic sample includes quarterback pass completion rates from every third quarterback listed in alphabetical order for two specific years Data Visualization What graph will best display
