Write a research brief | Be US Census Bureau’s Chief Analyst (Lesson 5 of 5) | 6-8
In Part 5, students will synthesize all of the information and methods they have used to write a final research brief and report to the governor of the state they have selected for analysis. In this multi-step project, students become the Chief Data Analyst for the US Census Bureau Chief and write a report for a governor of a US state to answer the following question: “Are families in my state better or worse than 10 years ago?” Students will use educational technology and real US Census data. Students will learn how to make representative samples using random sampling to make valid statistical inferences comparing sample means.
