Requirements
The course project provides an opportunity for the students to use the data collecting and analyzing techniques learned in the course to solve a practical problem.
The class will be divided into 8 teams (so each team has 4-5 students), each working on a topic chosen by the team. Reference: the problems and examples in the textbook.
At the end of the semester, each team will make a presentation to the class, which should takes 15 to 20 minutes, and covers the following content:
- The topic they selected, and why.
- The data they collected, and how.
- The analysis they performed on the data.
- The conclusions they draw from the data.
- The lessons they learned in the process.
Members of a team get the same grade, unless their contribution and performance have noticeable difference.
