Results and Conclusion

Results

Read through the results sections for this example
Use the rubric for the results section and highlight every criteria in the example that is outlined in the rubric.
Write your own results paragraph that summarizes the calculations from your study. You should not say any conclusions or if your numbers are significant, just summarize the numbers.

Conclusion/Discussion

Objectives

Finish all the calculations for the chi-squared project
Start writing your background, and hypothesis

Background, Hypothesis, and Research Question Steps

Research Question

Write your research question at the top of your paper

Background

Read the Background and Hypothesis for this example
Use the rubric and grade this section of rubric
Write your own background paragraph
Use your prior research assignment to incorporate descriptive statistics into your background paragraph

Hypothesis

1. Find the total percentage for each category in your entire sample.

2. Incorporate these total percentages into your null hypothesis. This will make your null fairly long but that is ok.

3. Write your alternative hypothesis

Objective

Finish observed and expected tables
Complete chi-squared calculations

Chi-Squared Calculations

Open your spreadsheet with your calculations for your data
Create a Chi-squared Table that matches the number of colored cells for your observed and expected tables
Use the chi-squared formula and find the chi-squared for each of your data data points
Create a final calculations table with Final Chi-Squared, Critical Value, P-value
Take the sum of each individual chi-squared in the “Final Chi-Squared” cell
Find the Degree of Freedom for your data. DF = (n-1)*(n-1) from your expected table.
Use this table to find the critical value for your data. Input the appropriate critical value in your table.
Calculate the p-value by typing "=CHISQ.TEST(" then selecting the observed values, and the expected values

Observed and Expected Tables

Steps

Open the Math 10 Chi-Squared Survey Results
Watch the video above for a detailed step by step.
Highlight both your group and your metric in the master spreadsheet
Copy and paste your group and your metric into a new spreadsheet
Title your spreadsheet as “Chi-squared Calculations Name”
Clean up necessary responses

Math 10 Chi-squared Survey

Calendar

Prior Research Activity

This is your task if you are not actively collecting data from the school. Go to the Prior Research Activity, also found on google classroom.

Find 3 sources that give background information about your group or metric. The sources must be from a reliable source (.org websites, academic articles, scientific journals, ect)
Copy the links onto your document
Use Purdue Owl and create an MLA citation for your source.

Objective

Compile and organize all research questions
Write the all school survey

Research Activity

Find the Research Questions Activity we worked last Thursday.

Pick 3 groups and 3 metrics, and write 3 different research questions following this format:
“Is there a difference between __”group”__ with respect to ___metric___?”

Sticky Notes:

Out of the 3 research questions, pick the one that is most interesting to you.

Write it on a sticky note and pass it to your partner.
On your partner’s sticky note bullet point the metric and the group
On the poster on your table, organize all the sticky notes by group, and title the group clearly on the poster.
On an empty space on the poster list all the metrics from the questions. Clearly write it so it is visible from a little ways away.

Creating the Survey

Open the Math 10 Statistics Survey
Create a question for your group if it has not already been asked
Create a question for your metric if it has not already been asked
Cross off your group and metric on the whiteboard
