The 2022 Fall Data Challenge puts students’ data analysis and statistical skills to test as they explore parent and guardian involvement in K-12 education.
In case you missed it, here are some tips and resources to help you in your data analysis:
Read the Overview
This overview offers an introduction to the dataset and its components that you definitely don’t want to miss, including the description of the data source, a synopsis of the data and some resources on data analysis.
Download the Dataset
Now that you’re oriented, you’re ready to jump into the data.
Note: Every team must use the 2019 dataset in your entries. However, you have the option to use the 2016 dataset in addition to the 2019 dataset if your team wishes to take on a greater challenge. Students also have the option to seek out their own additional datasets to include in their analysis, but this is not required.
Review the Guidelines
Check out the full contest rules and get all the details for what to include in your team’s submission. Remember, it’s not just about how you analyze the data itself–statisticians must also possess the soft skills to communicate their findings effectively!
