Skill(s) Being Assessed: Problem Solving - Data Analysis (Quantitative Communication)Criteria for Success: In this assignment, you will:Identify the purpose of the article and what problem it is addressing/trying to solve.Explain what categories of descriptive statistics are used in the study and how they are used to communicate the information found in the study and/or any conclusions/solutions posed.Make connections between the information presented/the problem and its larger impact to the world/your major/current job/future career goal.Create an accurate visual for the data that helps communicate a story/solution to the audience.Communicate recommended solutions using appropriate language and visuals for the purpose and audience.What to Submit / Deliverables: The assignment includes an application to a professional conference in two parts:1. A Conference Application Template [DOCX] with questions to complete.2. A PowerPoint presentation.What is the value of doing this assignment? This assignment gives you the opportunity to apply the statistical concepts and methods you have learned throughout the course to a current real world problem. You will continue to practice your problem solving skill through analysis of data—examining how others use descriptive statistics, and creating your own mathematical visuals in order to analyze and draw conclusions based on this data.You will also practice taking initiative in putting together a conference application on the problem identified and sharing your findings with a specific audience. This will additionally help you practice communicating effectively—a skill you can use in your personal and professional lives every day.As you work to complete this assignment, you will continue to practice results-driven strategies. You will have the opportunity to engage in a statistical process while working towards a specific goal, use measurement to report results, and consider the quality and integrity of data and the ways it can be used to effectively communicate solutions.Your goal for this assignment is to: Apply the statistical concepts and methods you have learned to a current real-world problem by using your problem solving, initiative, and results driven skills to complete an application and presentation for a professional conference that incorporates the data analysis, conclusions, and recommendations you have reached.What you need to complete this assignment:Newspaper article that uses statistical data.Conference Application Template [DOCX]PowerPoint or other presentation tool (check with your instructor if you have questions).Scenario:You are submitting an application to a professional conference on data-driven decision making. The application has two parts:Providing information to the conference organizers.Creating a presentation for the conference audience.Steps:STEP 1: Visit one of the following newspapers’ websites: USA Today, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, or Washington Post. Select an article that uses statistical data related to a current event, your major, your current field, or your future career goal. The chosen article must have been published after the start of this term.Examples may include:Elections/exit pollsAward shows (Oscars/Emmys/Grammys)SportsEconomy/job marketGender equalityHuman rights issuesThe article should use one or more of the following categories of descriptive statistics:Measures of Frequency - Counting Rules, Percent, Frequency, Frequency DistributionsMeasures of Central Tendency - Mean, Median, ModeMeasures of Dispersion or Variation - Range, Variance, Standard DeviationMeasures of Position - Percentile, QuartilesNote: Once you navigate to a publication’s website, it may be easiest to do a search with a statistics-related word (ex: standard deviation).The publications listed are suggestions. If you find an article from another source OR if you are uncertain the article contains all of the information necessary to complete the assignment, please let your instructor know. Your instructor can help you determine whether it is a good fit for this assignment. If you need additional help locating an article, contact a Strayer librarian for more assistance. Remember to review the examples in the Week 6 Discussion.STEP 2: Using the data from your article, use the template included in this assignment to answer the following questions asked by the conference organizers. Remember to consider their expertise as mathematical professionals and use appropriate language to communicate your findings:Highlight the purpose of the article and the problem it is trying to solve. Think summary, in bullet-form.Explain how the article uses descriptive statistics to communicate information found in the study and/or any conclusions/solutions.Explain how the article applies to the real world, your major, your current job, or your future career goal.Recommend solutions using the mathematical and visual data provided.STEP 3: An additional part of the application process requires you to create a presentation based on the information provided in the template.Based on your topic, choose an audience (outside of the field of mathematics) that could benefit from the information you will present. For example, this could be your local city council member, staff or administrators of a school, or employees at a company.Analyze the data in the article to determine the best visual (graph or chart) to tell the story to your audience.In PowerPoint or other presentation tool, create one visualization of the data appropriate for the conference audience. NOTE: If the article already contains a visual, you must create a different type of graph or chart.Explain how the audience can benefit from the data.Recommend your identified solutions using language appropriate for the audience.STEP 4: In the notes section of your final slide, answer the following questions:Explain why you chose the audience in Part B.Describe how the language, purpose, and visuals used in the PowerPoint are appropriate for the audience.STEP 5: Format your presentation according to the Strayer Writing Standards. Please take a moment to review the SWS documentation for details.STEP 6: Submit your assignment in two parts:The conference application template.Your presentation.Note: See an example Conference Application Template Example [DOCX] and Education and Life Expectancy [PPTX] example to see the length and content expected for this assignment.undefinedgrading rubric found here.
