SURVEY PROJECT Rubric & Checklist

Transcription

1 SURVEY PROJECT Rubric & Checklist Name: Overall expectatin C1: By the end f the curse, students demnstrate an understanding f the rle f data in statistical studies and the variability inherent in data, and distinguish different types f data. Explain why yu asked the questins yu asked. What is the rle f the data yu cllected? Explain hw yu minimized bias in yur survey. Explain the different types f data yu cllected. Use wrds like qualitative, quantitative, discrete, cntinuus, rdinal, interval, rati, numerical, categrical, nminal, binary, primary, secndary, bservatinal, experimental, aggregate, micrdata, lngitudinal, crss sectinal. Explain the impact the fllwing had n yur data, and might have n yur results and/r cnclusins: the wrding f the questins f yur survey the layut f yur survey the type f respnses yur survey the unavidable bias in yur survey Explain hw yu wuld imprve survey if yu culd red it. (Reflectin sectin) Use mathematical vcabulary crrectly in all f the abve

2 Overall expectatin C2: By the end f the curse, students will describe the characteristics f a gd sample, sme sampling techniques, and principles f primary data cllectin, and cllect and rganize data t slve a prblem. Define yur ppulatin. Explain hw yu designed yur sampling methd. Explain hw yu minimized bias in yur sampling methd. Explain the bias left in yur sampling methd. Print yur spreadsheet and include it in an appendix. Suggest imprvements that be made t yur sampling methd. (Yu can imagine yu have better resurces if yu like). (Reflectin sectin). Use mathematical vcabulary crrectly in all f the abve

3 Overall expectatin D1: By the end f the curse, students will analyze, interpret, and draw cnclusins frm nevariable data using numerical and graphical summaries. Describe the shapes f varius distributins. Determine mean, median, mde, range, quartiles, and standard deviatin fr at least ne set f data each. Cmpare subsets f data using the abve descriptins and calculatins (at least nce each). Present subsets f data t cmpare s that yu can accept r reject each f yur hyptheses. Draw cnclusins abut yur ppulatin based n the abve descriptins, calculatins, and cmparisns. What d the numbers mean abut yur ppulatin? Use mathematical symbls and vcabulary crrectly in all f the abve.

4 Overall expectatin D2: By the end f the curse, students will analyze, interpret, and draw cnclusins frm twvariable data using numerical and graphical summaries. Use technlgy t determine a line and/r curves f best fit. Explain yur dependent and independent variables. Discuss the type and strength f yur relatinships based n r 2 value and/r the spread f the data in yur graph. Cmpare subsets f data using the abve relatinships, calculatins, and descriptins. Cmpare subsets f data s that yu can accept r reject each f yur hyptheses. Draw cnclusins abut yur ppulatin based n the abve descriptins, calculatins, and cmparisns. Use wrds like: psitive and/r negative crrelatin, cause-effect, cmmn cause, and/r accidental. Use mathematical symbls and vcabulary crrectly in all f the abve

5 Overall expectatin B2: By the end f the curse, students will demnstrate an understanding f cntinuus prbability distributins, make cnnectins t discrete prbability distributins, determine standard deviatins, describe key features f the nrmal distributin and slve related prblems frm a variety f applicatins. (OPTIONAL) Describe the shape f a nrmal distributin. Use technlgy t test a set f data t determine whether r nt it has a Nrmal Distributin. Draw cnclusins with justificatins as t whether the set f data is Nrmal, clse t Nrmal, r nt at all Nrmal. Des this make sense? Wuld yu expect this data t have a Nrmal Distributin? Test a value against yur Nrmal(ish) data (i.e., d a z-scre). Be sure t justify yur chice f x. Interpret the results f yur z-scre. Draw cnclusins abut yur ppulatin. What d yur results mean abut CB students? Use mathematical symbls and vcabulary crrectly in all f the abve

6 Overall expectatin E1 & E2: By the end f the curse, students will design and carry ut a culminating investigatin that requires the integratin and applicatin f the knwledge and skills related t the expectatins f this curse. By the end f the curse, students will cmmunicate the findings f a culminating investigatin and prvide cnstructive critiques f the investigatins f thers. Yu meet all prject deadlines Yu participate in peer critiquing pprtunities Peer critiques f surveys Peer critique days Yur reprt includes the fllwing: Intrductin sectin Hypthesis sectin Methds sectin Results sectin Cnclusin sectin References sectin Appendices attached: Prpsal Survey drafts Rugh drafts Used surveys Rejected surveys Spreadsheet Yur reprt is neat and well rganized
