Assignment
The purpose of this assignment is to create a Jupyter notebook
that is educational, motivating and fun for a high school junior
(age 16 or 17) or senior (age 17 or 18) who is learning about Data Science.
You may assume that this high school student
is familiar with the basics of Python,
Jupyter Notebooks, high school geometry and high school algebra.
Jupyter Notebook Requirements
Create a single Jupyter Notebook that contains all of the following:
- Design a 10-point assignment that requires understanding the key content
from your assigned chapter. The assignment should be well-written,
educational, fun, motivating and take a high school student
around 2 hours to solve.
- Provide a solution to your assignment that includes explanations.
- Introduce and explain bonus material that is relevant to your chapter.
For example, if you were assigned Chapter 7, there are plenty
of additional types of visualizations.
- Design a 5-point bonus assignment that requires understanding
the bonus material you introduced. The assignment should be well-written,
educational, fun, motivating and take a high school student at
least 30 minutes to solve.
- Provide a solution to your bonus assignment that includes explanations.
Take a look at some of the homeworks on this page
to see what a 10-point assignment might look like.
30-Minute Presentation Requirements
- First 20 Minutes: Present your Jupyter notebook. Each
teammate should present for roughly 10 minutes.
- Final 10 minutes: Answer questions from the class.
- Assume that the audience consists of high school teachers
who will teach an Introduction to Data Science course.
These teachers are deciding whether to incorporate your team's
assignment into their class. Your presentation should convince
them that the answer is yes!
