Outline:<\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Introduction \u2013 Introduce the topic you are interested in exploring.\u00a0\u00a0Discuss the questions you have on the topic, and possible questions you may hope to find answers for.\u00a0\u00a0Is there a current point of reference on the topic you are interested in?\u00a0Is it in the news, or is it a lifestyle topic that matters to you?\u00a0\u00a0Is there a broader business implication in the topic you are going to explore and tell us about?\u00a0(Less than 1 Page).<\/strong><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Summary of the Resources that influence your Data Driven Perspective \u2013 Go into more detail about the topic and the questions you would like to explore.\u00a0\u00a0Also detail the source of your data set and the specifications of the data set.\u00a0\u00a0How many instances, or lines, of information do you have to analyze.\u00a0\u00a0How is the data structured?\u00a0\u00a0Talk about the categories of data and the figures, whether financial, measures of quantity, and so forth.\u00a0\u00a0Describe the industry standard for measures and if the measures you are using makes sense.\u00a0\u00a0Did you have to clean the data or pare the data down so you could use a part of it?\u00a0Did you select a cross section of data sample points, or did you select a longitudinal segment of the data (chronological data points).\u00a0\u00a0You may select several data sets and analyze them collectively and compare them, or you may stick to just one larger data set and go deeper into the insights you derive.\u00a0(2-3 Pages).<\/strong><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       <\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Manipulation of the Data \u2013 Describe what sort of manipulations you performed to the data to gain insights from the data set.\u00a0\u00a0Discuss the types of charts you created, how you presentated the data in graphical form, and why you chose certain types of reporting visuals, tables, and methods.\u00a0\u00a0If you perform statistical analysis, and you should do some, describe the items you selected for cross-tabulation, correlation, single and multi-factor analysis, and other types of statistical analysis.\u00a0\u00a0This is the section where you detail the types of reporting tools you use, the software you use to run reports, and why you think it is important to report data in a certain format, graphic or table.\u00a0\u00a0(2-3 Pages)<\/strong><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

         <\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Summary of Insights Derived from the Data \u2013 So here is where you talk about what you discovered.\u00a0\u00a0Talk about the graphs, charts, tables and other reporting instruments you created from the data, and what you gain for insights from the data set and subsequent manipulation.\u00a0\u00a0Tie the insights back to the initial problem and what you discovered in the analysis.\u00a0So, if your initial question was, \u201cWhat type of imports are most significant to the United States in the current economic climate?\u201d\u00a0\u00a0The an insight might be the table showing each major trade partner, their relative amount of trade by import category, and the comparison between the top three partners in the top five trade classes, and the relative trade-offs.\u00a0(One can imagine each trade partner may have a top trade category and several lower ones, or maybe not).\u00a0\u00a0But from a trade implication, it would matter depending on trade relationships, which partner we would want to increase or decrease trade from, and so if you had year over year data, you could argue that these decisions affect trade volumes, as we saw in the example form class.\u00a0However, the purpose is that the insights either prove or disprove your initial questions.\u00a0\u00a0In fact, they may give to other questions, and that is alright.\u00a0However, here you explain what you discovered from the data.\u00a0\u00a0(2-3 Pages)<\/strong><\/b><\/li>\n
        2. Conclusion \u2013 Here you need to go back and summarize the work you did and the line of thought from beginning to end.\u00a0\u00a0You begin with a brief description of the initial question or line of curiosity, then you discuss the data you found, and to which extent it fit the problem, whether your problem formulation changed and how based on the data available.\u00a0Then describe how you consolidated the data into usable form, including tables, charts, graphics and so forth.\u00a0Describe what you learned from the data, and finally describe what implications this analysis has for practical business use.(Less than 1 Page)<\/strong><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
