Project Part 1
You have 2 weeks to complete this assignment
DIRECTIONS: For this assignment you will conduct a numerical and chart descriptive statistics investigation on the data set associated with this assignment that is posted to Moodle. The dataset is a subset of data collected from the state of Virginia voter turn out data for November 2008 (https://apps.elections.virginia.gov/SBE_CSV/ELECTIONS/ELECTIONTURNOUT/ ). Additional details regarding the dataset can be found here (https://www.elections.virginia.gov/resultsreports/)
Your task in this assignment is to summarize the data using 3 communication methods:
You are encouraged to interact with fellow students; however your submission should be a reflection of our own individual understanding. That is, this is NOT a group assignment. Each student is to submit their own set of documents.
DO NOT submit Excel datasets with your assignment. Copy and paste all charts, tables, and graphs from Excel into your submission document. Tables, charts, and graphs are to be formatted to expectations for the class. Points are deducted for formatting and illegibility. Please use complete sentences when providing discussions or reporting interpretations for results (see week 1 materials). Report calculations when requested.
Deliverables: You are to post 3 separate submissions for this assignment. EVERY submission is to be in PDF format only.
Also indicate the appropriate measure of variability to use (standard deviation or IQR) based on the appropriate measure of center. Provide a justification for our choice. If necessary, calculate the IQR and show your calculations.
The Chart Analysis Section should include a histogram and box plot for every interval or ratio level variable in the dataset. An interpretation of the shape of the distribution (based on the histogram and box plot) should be included.
For the Z-score section: To gather the information needed in your Z-score section, generate a column in the dataset that calculates the z-scores for all values of interval or ratio level variables. Report the formulas (include any constants used in the formula) used to calculate the z scores. ONLY Report the highest and lowest z-score and the associated with each variable. DO NOT report all z-scores in your writeup.
Please see the resources listed in Moodle for examples and for free online resources that can be used to assist in the creation of an infographic. However, also please feel free to use any desktop publishing tool (Office products etc …), that you are comfortable with using, to design your infographic. Your submission to Moodle should be in PDF format only. There are free online Infographic tool (might require you to subscribe).
