Assignment: Building on your earlier project and homework submissions, the goals of this project are to (1) review and synthesize existing work in your chosen topic area and evaluate questions addressed in this work, (2) examine visualizations that have been used to communicate insights on your topic, (3) develop a conceptual model (DAG) that represents your group's current understanding of the topic, (4) communicate key insights to multiple audiences, and (5) presents your topic and questions as a potential avenue for further research. Below is a list of guiding questions and parameters for each task.?

(1) Problem and questions?(individual) - 5pts.:?
Write a 2-4 pages (double-spaced)?brief that synthesizes the problem you are addressing, existing resources/ literature, and the questions you will be addressing (potential guiding questions below).?? Explain how you will be addressing the problem and answering your questions.
What is the broad problem that you will be addressing?
What did you find in the existing literature? (Ex. This might be gaps in existing national surveys)
What questions are you answering??
How do your questions relate to the problem and how could their answers advance solutions??
Are your questions predictive or inferential in nature??
Are your questions appropriately framed and well described??
Explain how you will be addressing the problem and answering your questions.
?Note: your writing does not need to address all of these question and should not necessarily be constrained to only these topics.? We are looking for a cohesive narrative rather than answers to discrete questions.?
?
(2)?Visualization or Survey (individual) - 4 pts.:?
2 pages (double-spaced) including your visualizations OR your survey tool including your questions with the possible responses.
The writing for this task should be a general consideration of visualizations you did generate, or will generate based on survey responses,
Explain why you chose to either use particular types of visualizations? OR asked specific questions on your survey.
?Note: please reproduce the visualizations/ survey questions you discuss in the documents instead of simply providing links.
?
(4) Communicating Insights?(Individual) - 4 pts.:
Using Chapter 10 of the Art of Data Science text as reference, either communicate your findings (for existing data) or describe the way that you will analyze the data in order to communicate your findings. This can draw from HW 5 and can explain the way that you will address your questions.
?
(5) Presentation (group) - 8 pts:??
All group members contribute?
Introduces your topic broadly and makes a case for the questions you want to examine.?
Consider the presentation a pitch to decision makers about moving your projects forward.?
Include a complete list of resources you relied upon at the end of your presentation.? We are not concerned with citation format, but all resources should be easily accessible
