Final Project Guidelines
Project Rationale
The culmination of material covered in RSCH 8210: Quantitative Reasoning and
Analysis and RSCH 8260: Advanced Quantitative Reasoning and Analysis will provide
you with a number of tools for your statistical toolbox. An enthusiastic apprentice always
looks forward to the day where the skills learned can be put into action, to display a
product to the world that demonstrates they are now an artisan.
The purpose of the Final Project in this course is much like a Final Project an
apprenticing craftsperson might undertake. This project will utilize the amalgam of your
quantitative skills to demonstrate that you can:
1. Align an appropriate statistical test to a research question you constructed.
2. Find data that meets the assumptions of your statistical tests and answers your
research question.
3. Synthesize the results to articulately present the findings via an oral presentation.
4. Present the results in a formal, written document.
5. Document how quantitative methods can assist with social change.
