The Research Project is worth 20+ percent of your overall course grade. The assignment requires you to demonstrate the following course objectives (as stated in the course syllabus):

Analyze sources of data/information related to a given research topic

Evaluate both quantitative and qualitative research methods

Apply select statistical analysis procedures for quantitative data

Present findings in a coherent manner using both written text and graphics

For this assignment, you will be required to use a minimum of seven supporting documents/sources.

All sources must be scientific/scholarly in nature (and must be independent of one another just like in the Annotated Bibliography–two different pages from the same website count as one source).

Do not forget to access and use the AMU Online Library in support of your research, as well as the NASA website
