You were also given variables that indicated the curriculum type and the income of the households of students from each school. If this were a real research project, what other data would you collect to use as control variables? Why? In other words, what other variables might you collect that you might plausibly expect to have an impact on the change in test scores aside from income and the curriculum type? Give at least 4 examples and in each case explain why you would include them.
