Students will prepare a brief research report related to a social issue of their choosing using data from the General Social Survey and the GSS's Data Explorer tool (http://gss.norc.org/).  They will upload this essay into Blackboard.  The report should be approximately two to three pages in length.

In this report, students are required to do each of the following:

  • Students will clearly identify the social issue addressed in their report (concept from rubric: identification).
  • Students will clearly identify two variables from the GSS that they will include in their analysis.  One of these variables must be related to their selected social issue.  Students will explain how this variable is related to their selected social issue.  Students will also propose a hypothesis about the relationship between the two variables (concept from rubric: assimilation).
  • Students will use the GSS Data Explorer to perform a bivariate analysis (concept from rubric: presentation).
  • Students will draw a conclusion about the relationship between the two variables and provide a short summary of their findings (concept from rubric: application).
