# Project proposal
|

This planning document will also form the introduction of your
|
|
argument.

|
|
|
## Overarching Question
|
|
|
|
### What central question are you interested in exploring? Why are you interested in exploring this question?
|
|
|
|
*This should be the big picture question that you ask; use at least 5
|
|
sentences to describe why you are interested in it.*
|
|
|
|
### What specific research questions will you investigate?
|
|
|
|
*List 2-4 specific research questions. Each should be answerable
|
|
using your data set.*
|
|
|
|
## Data source
|
|
|
|
### What data set will you use to answer your overarching question?
|
|
|
|
*Give the title of your data set and provide a link to your data.*
|
|
|
|
### Where is this data from?
|
|
|
|
*Describe the source of the data set--not just where you downloaded it, but
|
|
the person or organization who gathered the data. Explain why you trust them.*
|
|
|
|
### What is this data about?
|
|
|
|
*Describe the nature of the data in the dataset, including the number of rows
|
|
and some of the columns which will be important to you.*
|
|
|
|
## Methods
|
|
|
|
### How will you use your data set to answer your quantitative questions?
|
|
|
|
*For each research question, explain what you will do with the data set
|
|
to answer the question, and how you will present your answer (e.g. a chart or a table).*
