In this assessment, you will integrate your findings from Assessments 1–4 and describe how the survey was conducted. You will also reflect on the limitations of the survey and think about potential improvements for a future study.
In Assessments 1–4, you have gone through all steps from proposing a survey to producing and evaluating the survey data. For this assessment, you will analyze and integrate your findings from the previous components in Assessments 1–4. Write your paper from the viewpoint that you are presenting the information to an audience that is interested in your results. Include graphical representations as well as an explanation of descriptive and inferential measures, relating these components to the context of your survey. Only make claims that the data you collected can support.
The goal of your analysis and interpretation is to take the data that was collected and turn it into useful and usable information. Look for lessons that you learned from your data collection and results. What did you learn about the participants? What surprised you? Did you expect any of the results? Are there issues that arose that you did not understand? These may require further, more in-depth research. Discuss any limitations of the study.
In your paper:
Interpret and communicate your results to your target audience.
Include a brief summary of your population, sampling techniques, and survey.
Communicate results, interpretation, and analysis of all assessments, including graphs (circle, bar, histogram), measures of central tendency, measures of variation, confidence intervals, and hypothesis tests.
Your paper should contain both a summary of results and an interpretation and analysis of the results. Every survey question should be addressed in your interpretation. You will not be able to comment on every little finding, so you will have to make some judgments about what might be the most interesting or revealing results.
