1. Choose a topic you are interested in. Tips for topic selection:

  Just identify two or three things an analyst might first look for in the data, 
  and set those things as the scope for your exercise. It's also reasonable to 
  design your exercise around data you've already worked with. 

. Within your topic of interest, choose specifically what you will measure 
  with data. Make this as precise as possible. If you can articulate what you 
  are doing in the form of, I'm trying to answer the following question ..., 
  and the question is specific and lends itself to data analysis, you're on 
  the right track.

. Keep in mind from the outset that you're going to need actual data, and 
  for some ideas data may not be available. (At least to you anyway.) two rich 
  resources of government data: data.census.gov (Links to an external site.) 
  and FRED.stlouisfed.org (Links to an external site.). You're welcome to choose 
  a topic using data from one of those more familiar sources, but it is not 
  at all required. The internet is teeming with data sets for download. 
    
2. Specifications for data and analysis.

  .g. regression (see below) will have a dependent variable and at least two 
  independent variables. No maximum. 
. Your analysis should include at least one regression (see above) estimated 
  using R.
. Your analysis should include at least one table of summary statistics. 
  Graphical analysis is encouraged but not required. 
    
3. What you are turning in. It should include:
. An R script demonstrating the steps you executed in R. 
. The R data object(s) saved. 
. Any excel sheets or other documents with a summary statistics table, any 
  other tables or graphs of results
. An MS Word document, no more than 500 words, with written answers to the 
  following:
        A. What did you set out to measure? What is your question?
        B. What data did you use? Where did you get it? 
        C. What data analysis methods did you employ, and why did you choose 
           them? In this section, for example, you would show exactly what 
           regression(s) you estimated. 
        D. What did you find? Were you able to measure what you meant to? 
           Anything surprising in the results?
