By this class meeting you need to have identified the data used by participants in the issue or debate that you have identified. You will have found where that data came from. And you will have downloaded that data into a spreadsheet or other data manipulation package and roughly replicated the date/evidence/argument used by these participants to demonstrate or prove their argument. You will also need to look at the data’s limitations, possibly extend the data beyond where the participants in the issue have extended it to assess whether or not the data they provide is consistent with their argument. Write a 2 to 5 page paper summarizing what you have found.
