4+-+Data+Collection+Plan

Research Projects fall into 2 categories

1) Experimental - If this category fits your project, you must write a brief procedure in your wiki post with enough information so that I can evaluate your experimental plan. How long will you measure data? How many samples? What will you measure? Where will you perform the experiment? What supplies are needed?

2) Literature based - If this category fits your project, you must write about two types of data gathering: first, you will look for data in the literature, or by interviewing individuals that support your thesis statement; second, you will look for data that do not support your thesis statement. For this assignment tell me the kinds of data you will look for, what sources you will examine.

3) Later (after your data collection plan is approved), everyone is required to organize data into tables and display the results graphically.

4) Post your plan on your wiki discussion post on PAGE 1 - Research Paper Feedback. Do NOT post your data collection plan here!
