This week involved some practice calculating and describing data from a statistical standpoint. The Group worksheet illustrated the importance of looking at sets of data from multiple perspectives in order to obtain the whole story. While two sets of data may have the same Mean, a look at other statistical viewpoints such as Mode, Standard Deviation and Range could provide more details to make a better informed comparison.
My group worked on developing a survey and decided to take a lighter approach in terms of subject-matter. We hope that by selecting a topic that a larger audience can relate to will increase participation, make it less of a task and more fun for thosse who do take the time to fill it out. We decided to use Google Forms to create the survey because it is easy to share and work collaboratively.
