Polling Project
In this project, students will find a real poll and analyze it for the credibility of its methods. Give the students a few days to find their poll, then a couple of days to analyze it.
Data Display Project
In this project, students will find a real, published data display and analyze and critique it. Give students a few days to find their data display (they may need a check-in to make sure they’ve got something suitable), and a few days to write their report.
Design My Questionnaire
In this collaborative assignment, students will work together to create a survey about student stress, going through the stages of conceptualization, question writing, and answer writing. This should take 60–90 minutes.
Experiement Analysis
In this project, students will find a real, published experiment and analyze how well the experimenters designed their methods, and how clearly the results were communicated. Give students a few days to find their experiment (they may need a check-in to make sure they’ve got something suitable), and a few days to write their report.
