The goal of this project is to answer their hypothesis being ‘Women have a higher survival rate than men’, ‘the younger survivals are more than the older survivals’ and ‘the higher the class of the passenger, the higher the survival rate’ and figure out whether their hypothesis’ were correct.
Describe the data used or collected.
The data this team used is from Awesome Public Data Sets on Github and is called titanic. They have 12 variables to work with and 891 observations relating to each passenger on board the Titanic. They have a wide variation of categorical and numerical variables, all relating to passengers on board the Titanic ship.
Describe how the research question will be answered, e.g. what approaches / methods will be used.
The way in which this team will answer their research question is by answering their hypothesis’ through data visualisations and summary statistics, and mutating data where possible to get to what they want to feature within their answers. They did mention that they will have to conduct more research in order to reach their conclusions.
Is there anything that is unclear from the proposal?
From the proposal, I didn’t think there was anything unclear in particular. I like the way they set out their graphs - the labelling told me exactly which variables they were using, and the ranges were suitable along the axes. I understood what the team are trying to find and nothing confused me in this proposal.
Provide constructive feedback on how the team might be able to improve their project.
Perhaps breaking up the narratives into paragraphs will allow for easier reflection on what they have analysed as it may be easier to find. My feedback would be to continue including the thorough explanations and coding, as the results are clean and easy to interpret through visualisations. I liked their outside information they found to back up their data in the introduction.
What aspect of this project are you most interested in and would like to see highlighted in the presentation.
The aspect of their project that I am most interested in would be their third hypothesis where they mentioned ‘the higher the class of the passenger, the higher the survival rate’. I thought this was an interesting route to take using this data, and I am curious to hear whether this is true or not as they delve further into their analysis.
Provide constructive feedback on any issues with file and/or code organization.
For code organisation, my feedback would be to continue with the clean organisation that they have already demonstrated. Nothing stood out to me that was a ‘no-no’. Perhaps more detailed labels on axes?
(Optional) Any further comments or feedback?
Good luck guys! Great work so far, I thoroughly enjoyed looking at your proposal!
