Enchiladas, as described on pp. 113 and 114 of Statistics
FL Student Survey, as described on pp. 22 and 23 of Statistics
Georgia Student Survey, as described on pp. 22, 23, and 151 of Statistics

Introduction
o    Introduce the Learning Team members and the data set.
o    Briefly explain how the data was gathered and identify the study population.
Descriptive Statistics
o    Define descriptive statistics and list the various descriptive measures.
o    Explain how descriptive statistical analysis increases understanding of the data.
o    Include an original graph created with StatCrunch that uses at least one descriptive statistical measure to illustrate the data set.
Inferential Statistics
o    Define statistical inference and include and explain at least one original inferential statistical calculation.
o    Use StatCrunch to check the calculation and show the steps in your presentation.
o    Explain how inferential statistical analysis increases understanding of the data.
Null Hypothesis Testing
o    Explain the purpose of null hypothesis testing and provide examples of null hypotheses that may be tested with the data set.
o    Explain the logic of hypothesis testing and the role of the null hypothesis.
Implications for Future Research
o    Differentiate between descriptive and inferential statistics and how they support the human services research process.
o    Provide an example of a study that is a logical follow-up to your data set that yields useful descriptive data.
o    Provide an example of a study that is a logical follow-up to your data set that yields useful inferential statistics.
o    Provide an example of a null hypothesis inspired by your data set that adds to the human services community’s knowledge.
Conclusion and References
Format your presentation consistent with APA guidelines.

The Research Proposal must be a 1,050- to 1,400-word proposal formatted according to APA 6th ed. guidelines. The Learning Team must identify a problem worthy of research and develop an outline of the process required to research it. No actual experiments must be conducted.
The Research Proposal must contain the following sections:
Introduction
Write a 100- to 200-word introduction for your research proposal. This must explain your research problem and question and your working hypothesis.
Refer to Appendix A of Beginning Behavioral Research for guidance on creating an introduction.
Elements of the Study
Write a 175- to 350-word outline of the elements of your research study.
o    Provide your argument for the study and at least one example of past research that supports your argument.
o    Describe your variables and what they mean. For example, if I am measuring success, I define success as a student’s grade on their GRE exam. The success variable equals above average score on the GRE. Please use your own example.  
o    Describe your sample
Refer to Appendix A of Beginning Behavioral Research for an overview and examples of a research report. 
Ethical Considerations
Write a 175- to 350-word summary identifying ethical considerations you must have in designing your research project.
