Assessment Instructions
Activity 1: Presentations (30 Minutes)
• Beginning of class lecturer randomly assigns groups of two (2)
• Each student will present for 8-10 minutes outlining their plan for below parts of their research project
o Determining what insights industry wants and sourcing data
• What industry are you looking at? What business question do you want to answer? Is the project feasible given the amount of time you have. Provide some feedback.
• Where will you source your data? How do you anticipate that the data will help answer your business question?
• Is the data able to be analysed? (or are you going down the rabbit hole?)
o Data processing and management
• How will you store and manage the data?
• How much cleaning and filtering do you anticipate the data will require?
• Will the data sources require some effort to integrate?
o Data analytics techniques used
• What techniques will you apply to the data? Have the techniques been used successfully on other data previously?
• How will these techniques provide insights to address the business problem?
• What software will enable you to easily apply the analytics and visualize the data?
• The other group member will take detailed notes for their feedback report
Activity 2: Feedback Report (1 hour)

o How constructive and respectful the feedback was
o Whether it gave you any novel ideas
o Whether it helped you feel more confident taking the next steps
