Proposal: Identify research problem, find data, and prepare data for analysis.
Identify a research problem in a domain that the group is interested in. You may have certain beliefs you may want to put to the test or you may find inspiration for the problem in recent news events. For instance, you may be interested in examining the influence of social media activity on stock price. The more interesting the problem, the more exciting it will be for your group to work on and will make for a more interesting final presentation. Since this is a team effort, ensure everyone on the group buys in to the idea.
Construct a set of research questions or hypotheses that you would like to answer. Examine published research in the domain or on the subject chosen to select questions that have not been studied or have received only limited attention. Including citations to published articles reviewed is recommended.
Submit the following as part of the Project Proposal:

Written progress report (text, Word or PDF format): The report should include a description of the research problem, discuss related literature, and outline research questions to be examined. The expected length is 2 pages. Write works cited page.
