Create an 8-10-slide PowerPoint presentation to discuss the findings for either the chi-square or correlation. Create a voice-over or a video presentation that is 5-7 minutes in length. Your slides should be shown on the screen as you present. Loom may be used (you must use your GCU email address to access all of the features for Loom). Other options are Zoom or the recording feature in PowerPoint. Include an additional slide for the link with your selected method of presentation at the beginning and an additional slide for references at the end.
Include the following.
