About survey & design

My suggestions for the three questions are:

  1. Develop a long list, maybe upto 7 questions (think about different types of answers so that you can have more innovative analysis)
  2. Imagine that you have collected data for those questions
  3. Each member of your group grades the importance of each question.
  4. Select the 3 best graded questions
  5. Make the questionnaire as beautiful as you can, and within 1 paper double-sided printed. You can even make it online, if you can.
  6. Review them by discussion among the group members, before you go for large scale data collection on it!

Each member should collect a minimum of 20 completed questionnaires, or each group a minimum of 80 questionnaires. Don't rush or head for the number!! When people take heart to fill the questionnaire, your result shall be real good!! The analysis result is far more important than the "number" bonus!!

Sample size bonus: My minimum requirement is actually too small to be good for statistical tests, you can get more for your analysis. Generally, the more the better for analysis. So you may enjoy a "number bonus": by doubling the sample size you will get 3% more. Triple, you will get 6% more. Quadruple, 9% more.

A. The definition of a completed questionnarie.

  1. There should be no more than 2 missing questions for one observation (one row of data). (not counting your three questions, they are too easy to miss this)
  2. There should be NO missing question from at the core section
  3. There shall be no contradictions (tell you on class about it)
  4. The actual filled questionnaire should be able to refer to a row in the data sheet (with the proper reference numbers at the corner of the questionnaire page)

B. You should also keep count of all your incompleted questionnaries. Input data for them and in remarks write "incomplete."

C. And you should also keep count of the number of failed questionnaries, like those who you have invited but they do not want to help you, or they cannot help you. These are just standard procedures in marketing research.

 

Asking people to help you politely is the key to good results!!!

Since sincere answers are more important, bonus will only be counted on those sincerely filled questionnaire (with statistical technique, I can find them out. ) So, never cheat as required by your dignity. You better try to make questions that are popular for people to answer. Ask people politely, find good friends to help, and be patient to explain to people your survey. And the most important thing in your life: plan your schedule and check your progress. You may get more bonus from your statistical analysis, tell you more when your data collection is done.

Note:

  1. Keep all the filled questionnaires carefully. And number them at the bottom right corner of the last page.
  2. Record how many people you have asked, so that you can track your success rate. (Normally it is very low)
  3. Input your collected data on the "Data" sheet of excel file with the reference number. (You should complete this part and submit on or before the deadline.)
  4. Do some analysis with your collected data. (Techniques to be demostrated on class, after your data collection.)
  5. Discuss and conclude your findings in your report and presentations.
  6. Summit your project report together with all the filled questionnaires later.

Project Resources

The questionnaire is available here for your project (updated 18 Aug 21).

The English version is available inside, I use the hide function in Excel.

There were 2 tabs (spread sheets) in the excel file. You are only allow to change questions in the yellow zones (Remember, you are not allow to change any other questions). Do not worry about people's answers, so far as they are true.

The core section that you cannot have missing questions are Q1 to Q29.

Read my past project comments for your seniors, it helps you understand how to do your project right.

Project Comments

Report and presentation 2024

Thank you all that gave me some surprises and sometimes interesting idea in your project presentations. They were nice!!!! The original idea of multi-modal data mush be too new and too difficult to collect data, but many of you could do that. Only that you did not organize data into a format ready for deep learning analysis. It is ok, coz in later year you will learn those skills. As a whole, most of you did a good job! To improve yourselves more, read the rubrics so that you will know in what directions should you may choose to improve your abilities and to make a great project. I am glad that though it was difficult, most of you could give me a very clear objectives and the reason to start the research in your executive summary, if you had made that!

Yet there are rooms for improvement.

For presentation, not a few of you could not properly maintain eye-contact with your audience. There are many tricks to maintain your audience focus, learn more as you advance in your presentation experience.

In writing, short-form of words, like DLC should be used with explanation in its first appearance of the report or presentation. You have to let our audience understand your business.

** About using AI **

A group put AI a good tool to use to solve a data input problem. However, some of you were too lazy (JerryL) to write your own report and use AI extensively (like chatGPT) to do the job!! You were basically replaced by AI! Lazy and careless you were!!! Group members in this team should have opposed and rejected the lazy and cheating idea to work out a report. Now, everyone suffers in the low grade of the report part. Never again do that. Otherwise your whole group will fail the project. AI can only help you draft your idea or touch-up your English, it can never replace you, or else you have no value in your role of your work, and your study. Why not your employees simply use AI, they do not need you!!! This time, teammates of this group are unlucky, in the lucky draw you were pushed into this group with bad and lazy working culture; but still it is lucky for you to see that you have to voice out when you see something is wrong. You must, otherwise you suffer along with those people who has bad ideas about doing a job.

Besides that! Thank you!!!! Your project reports provided me new idea of using AI. Hope your experience, as you expressed in the last part of your report, can lead you to a better you. That is what we call improvement. Enjoy the rest of your short university life. Learn to be good, not bad!

Presentations and reports 2023

Thank you all that gave me some enjoyable time for your project presentations. They were full of surprises and sometimes interesting idea on using Excel to explore opportunities in AI! Very well done most of you! I enjoyed things like: your extra skills on difficult Python programming for data visualization and you live demonstration of data manipulation, actually with many interesting functionalities. You utilized the course materials on using Excel functions!!!

Two groups of you have chosen to collect massive data so that it can fit into the requirement of AI analysis. very well done! Yes, you paid good attentions right from the beginning of the semester in class and did some research on AI and know some characteristics and requirements for the applications! Thus, you could utilize some more advanced functions in your study! Very good your working attitudes! However other groups only collected very simple and chose to live through the semester with more leisure. It might feel nicer but the outcome was a project not that attractive and interesting. Do not start your life easy. Remember Mr. Steve Jobs? "Stay hungry. Stay foolish. Never let go of your appetite to go after new ideas, new experiences, and new adventures." Live a meaningful life that you will not regret.

When your project made use of data to tell a story you should tell where you got your data from. Reliable data source is as important as reliable information. Explaining your reliable data source can help the convincing power of your information. To tell stories with the charts was a major purpose of the project. Many of you could do that well. In that, some of you did not have figure number and figure title in the report. It is difficult for your readers to follow your text with the figures! Many of you are weak in the Q&A section. My questions about charting for proportions could have been answered quite easily with the ideas in my class exercise. Just relax and calm down to answer, when you are being asked.

Yes, as many noted: what questions to study are important, but very difficult when you start the project with little ideas of what to achieve and to do. It will be an iterative and continuous process while you work on the project. Project is like that, it is an exploration rather than a homework that you have a single path or rule to follow. Some of your background was full of something like research questions. Although it was not the perfect setting, but it was nice to have that in mind. You will know more how to do that with more trainings. I will see to your growth.

Many of you could speak excellent English. Clear, concise and natural! I love that! I felt like watching weather reports at home! Thank you very much!! However, many of your boys were paying respects to the presenters, during the presentations. It is very inappropriate and an act of immaturity! You were very impolite in attending presentation. Not only you talked, you even disturbed others, including me, to listen to the presenters! This kind of disturbs is unacceptable in all similar events! You will be expelled by security and legally you are wrong. Behave, men!

It is difficult not to have motions in working on project. However, I want you to know whenever you want and something decent it is always difficult. There will always be differences in opinions in many, like properly topic selections and research questions, and even work schedules. University is a place to prepare you for this real cruel world. Make yourselves a mature individual so that you can be part of this human society. Lazy bones will wither and die. I do not want to see any of my friends, like you, to regret when it is too late (it will come sooner than you imagine now). Learn to make yourself a useful buddy for your dream job and corporate with kinds of different people. You are lucky: Some of you are super smart that you can learn from them and make yourself a better you.

Some silly mistakes. Some of you spent too much time on the section member contributions that could not help scoring! And some report printed with on thin margin. And some were unable to follow the simple instruction in my SA01 to print out a report. Hope you can do better than a high-school student sooner. There are a lot to learn other than classes.

After all, good job! Thank you, I was glad that your projects provided me surprises after surprises. Hope your failures, if any, can tell you how to do it better next time. That is what we call improvement.

Presentation and reports 2022

Very nice your work on both the presentations and the reports. Nice presentations and reports. I saw informative data, beautiful charts and sensible analyses. Some aspects of yours surpassed my imagination! You were able to collect data from different online sources. Many of you use extraordinary Excel functionality like pivot tables and charts, filtering and some data aggregation techniques. Some of you even used advice tools to create diagrams like by SPSS or Tableau. Very good trials although they were not perfect. This is exactly what I want: you learn by doing. School is a place allow that you to make such mistakes. Keep trying!

In your presentation, try to get audience attention before you actually started. Lighting, voice, screen effects are all tools you did not utilize. You should have tried to find someone who have those powers to start! It was too much like a routine boring reading in most of your starts. For charting, many of them were great, but some were not fitting the stories you wanna tell. Say, for complex changes, you shall have created charts like in percentage changes so that countries of different GDP scales can be presented in a single line chart. Stacked multiple column charts can be both in 100% or in raw number, think about what to tell then create charts for that.

Two groups missed the executive summary, obviously they did not review my requirement carefully before their submissions. Writing report is the basic in business project, you should learn how to write a report, simply follow the project guideline. In modern business world is important to have a logical presentation. The conclusions should follow the analytical results that you spend time to build.

This is your first decent project. Many of you are inexperience in expressing your good work. Be reminded that it is not a homework. You cannot fill the blanks just as what you did in high school. You have to try your best to show the merits of your project. I am sure every one of you tried your very best to do something that is extraordinary and other people did not do. Only you could see that difficulties and you used all your wisdoms to solve them. Those were the parts that you should elaborate more because they show how smart you are. While many of you could not do that in both presentation and report, I had to ask for your Excel files. In the next project, make sure that you can show the best parts of your project.

I can see many of you did not make corrections even after the demonstration section. By doing that you gave up your chances to improving your project. With some painful experience, I am glad that some of you understand using WeChat to communicate is no good. My kind of group projects is difficult. You should have worked together physically so that you could communicate fluently and effectively without misunderstanding.

Some groups were very diligent in data collection. Very good, you scored some bonus on that. Some groups used filters in their collected data so that they could work on the analysis. I am sure they tried the best they could for the complex data. Very well done, smart!!! Well, they shall see it complicated the way they stored and analyzed, mixing these 2 data processing stages should be confusing to you. I believe by now you know the difficulties in how to store data effectively, and for their analysis, and actually, there are many more stages to inside. Hahahah, yes, you were working on something very advanced in the world of Big data. By year 3 you shall know how to professionally deal with it. In the meantime, ponder more on that and that can help you know understand why when I tell you the way.

Congratulations you have started learning and paved your way to more advanced analytic skills! Looking forward to your next show.

Presentation and report 2021

Satisfactory presentations and nice reports! Many of you had very good logics and reasons for your designed questions. You started your survey with very good online tools and then nice analyses, although not all results were eye-catching. Some of you could show some comprehensive highlights, like using scatter plots and good multi-column charts to tell stories. And you used those findings on your business ideas, so then a business could take advantages of those pieces of information. You did not elaborate too much that you did not do, good! It helped people focus on your major contribution. I can se many of you know the essences of the project now.

However good you were, there were rooms for improvement. One group scored very high, but their report submission was seriously late, huge marks were deduced. Otherwise, they should have surprised the others. Similar problems for some other groups with no executive summary, no charting result in their report or no legend in charts. In work, make sure you got a checklist of things to do. That helps.

Other than skills in analysis, that you are learning, you shall develop a lot more others: presentation, logical and social. Let me start with something easy to understand.

You shall organize your presentation topics so that they can appear logical, and more importantly, so that you audience can follow easily. Your introduction logics shall be from easy to difficult, from simple to complex ideas. But make sure you allocate reasonable time to your topics. Introduction is important, but it is not your core, so it should not be long. In comparison, your analysis is your core and contributive part, it should be allocated more time. Usually, the time allocated shall be proportional to the marks assigned. And time is precious, do not duplicate your content in presentation, some of u did in the presentation!

In your analysis, it should be logical. You shall start with your sample profile. And exhaustive use of a few or even one analysis to tell many stories is not good. Your analysis shall be specific to tell a story; so design your analysis for each story you wanna tell. And, this is an empirical study, try to stick your discussions to your findings, not your logical and possible explanations of the phenomenon. Your analysis with diagrams and charts should be the cores.

Audience management is never easy. It is a science of attention. Try lighting, sound, images and graphics as your tool. Be flexible to your circumstance, you shall make adjustment accordingly, due to equipment failures, unexpected slice in PPTs, etc. Also, try to control your audience by presenting the best parts of your findings that they do not know. An essence of presentation, and report as well, is to show people that you are smart and know something they do not know!

Looking forward to your better work next year!

Well, online class is like that: not your fault. Keep working, but with more comminication, it would be more difficult to get to  consent, be patient.

Report and presentation 2020

Nice all your presentation for year-1 projects, although many of you were inexperienced. Many of them were incomplete, but you could still got to your points. Some of you have a very complete set of analyses. Some even have extra tools to analyze data, like SPSS & Python!!! Some of you have heavy inclination to Python programming!! Well done! You are no more pupils, but really students, who supposed to study! You have a very good start! You had overcame the most difficult part: the start! Not easy for self-learners on that! Amazing! Extraordinary!! I am glad that even in your first decent project you could do that, although eventually you will do that!

The most difficult part in presentation is the selection of materials. One group of you could make very good improvement in prioritizing the topics to say now. As a rule, you should present those topics in which you have outstanding and important findings, according to the objectives. Good, you did that.

However, some of you showed you were inexperienced in this kind of project. Your presentation should be different from teaching. Other than your motives and reasons for the study, you should have shown people how you used tools to analyze data and hence some results. Those were your project objectives and tasks. And the outputs were your findings. Use those findings for your business, show people how a business can take advantages of those pieces of information. A group of you totally missed the report requirements as posted in my first chapter. Poorly executed writing process you had. They did not even give me a cover page!

And in presentation, try not to say sorry easily, politeness shall be expressed in some other ways. The Chinese culture of over-humble is not a professional manner. In presentation, simply show what you did, and so preparation was very important. This kind of research used quantitative analysis, it tries to find supports for a business decisions. Thus, you could have made better uses of my questions in my defined sections. My questions are actually about consumer characteristics, some of you knew that, but not all of you could utilize them for your work.

Conclusions are not easy for you. Each of them shall follow as directly as possible from your results. The means was the survey, so you could have to rely on your quantitative analysis analyses. The logical flow between results and conclusions is not easy for you; some parts of your report content, particularly conclusions deviated too much from that. Try to get used to this scientific research method for business. This project is your first exercise on using such logic. You got some experience now, hopefully it can help your development.

For year-1, not bad overall. Keep learning, keep growing. Never cheat! Looking forward to a better you next year. Merry Christmas!!!

Presentation and report 2019

It was quite enjoyable to have your presentation. To my surprise, many of you could speak fluent English, even in stressful conditions like this presentation. Some of you were able to tell a reasonable story from motive, background to analysis and results. Yes, able to communicate your idea would be attractive to most audience. It is actually a must for good presentation. Keep it up.

Some of you were helpful. When some members' part were incomplete, you gave some additional information after their parts. It was nice, if only on few occasions. However, you should not do that much; too much would be some distractions to your audience. A better solution would be using more rehearsal before the real presentation.

Many of you made use of other online resources to support your direction of research. Well done! You did work on a project with good background study! Keep it on, your work was more than high-school project now!

Many of you made use of online resources to help your data collection. Good! And many of you actually presented those part in detail. You were able to show your problem solving skills; it is an important thinking for adults. Very nice, you will be able to excel among the averages!

Pronunciation of keywords are important. Not all of you could do that well. Make sure you can speak the words right. Otherwise, people cannot understand your ideas and it would be a big discount to your merits.

Some of you were careless. You had Chinese titles in PPT slides; not acceptable! Your material to present should be in English. Your audience expected English as the medium of communications.

Some of you showed chart in you MSWORD report in your presentation. You should have put those charts in your PPT. Your presentation would be more fluent and it creates much less distraction to your audience.

The posture was a problem too. Some of you did not stand up while speaking! Some of you even hindered your group members in their presentation section! How careless. You had been warned in the demonstration section; still you did that. Very silly mistakes.

As for your reports and contents, many of you could not complete the Executive Summery (10%) satisfactorily. One of you put it as Purpose of the report. One group put most of it into your introduction, discount much in that part. You should have used it to capture the attention of people so that people may like to read your full report. You should have told people your important findings.

All of you could define good special questions so that you could accomplish what you wanted to investigate! Charts were generally reasonable. However, some pie charts were too rough: a large portion by a group and many other small groups. If possible, like when you have open-ended questions for age and expenditure, you should have created pies with more meaningful idea, and with smaller bins. Or using histogram would show your ideas better.

Some groups named the titles of your report sections other than required. The titles in business research report is quite standardized. That was why I gave you the report format and some sample copies for your reference. You were too careless not to follow that and invented your own titles. Lucky I could find your closely related sections. But some discounts were made. You shall follow the instruction closely ever after.

Strange one group of you made a section titled hypothesis right before conclusions. The word hypothesis has a special meaning in business research. You actually means business idea after your research. Nice, it was what you should suggest after your results. You may call it business suggestion. The only difficulty is that this part should closely related to your analysis results. For this first project in your university life, your analyses were quite weak and not much results you could make use of. Try better next time, maybe.

Some of you were not detail enough to address your findings in your conclusion part; instead, you only put the conclusion at the end of your analysis, and mixed with your business ideas based on that. Nice, but you can do better. Usually, you shall have your conclusion reiterates your important findings, or tell a more complete story after seeing all the results from your analysis. Then you tell people how you can make a good business out of that findings. Yes, this may be the first time you wrote a complete report, after your high-school chemical laboratory. Try to read more carefully about the project instruction or guideline at the beginning of the courses, next time.

Some of you in your reflection admitted the project was not easy. Yes it was. And you were aware of the importance of logical thinking. Very good. Yes, it is. Only by working logically you can arrive to reliable conclusion. More, some of you found difficulties in communicating your thoughts to other group members; even with long discussions. Yes, it is one of the biggest challenges in business projects. You have to work as a group, no individual. Heroism does not one work; you may lose a lot of good ideas from members; and miss out some important perspectives. Business usually serves many kinds of people, and only by collecting ranges of perspectives you may come up with a good decision.

The Appendix (5%) is supposed to be something about your programming codes or anything special. Most of you could not illustrate your virtue there.

Overall, not bad; but there are rooms for improvement. Try experience more in your future.

4 The title means your project title. You may find a better title and change it later. With brief idea of your plan. Good Q1&2, but the open-end ans from Q1 will be very difficult to analyse. Q3 is a function of your browser, not the website. And you shall put a better focus on the message/info (in a website). That will help you make better questions.  And your ans format is missing. You should have put them into the yellow zone of the questionnaire.  +0.5% 9.20%

Think carefully about what you should ask (for your special questions). They should be related to the project objectives in Chapter 1 of the notes. Your work in this stage is critical to your successful investigation of the project. Be mindful.

Presentaion 2018

Nice to see your presentation! Overall, they are very good!!

Your contents are mostly okay, but it is not yet perfect. First, the order of presented topics should be logical. And to help audience to understand your work, the analysis should starts with simple things, like descriptive statistics, basic pie charts, then lastly the complicated analysis with multiple column charts and regression. And lastly conclusion, which should be based on your analysis. Make it specific and relevant to your project objectives!

A less frequent problem among you is the texty slides; you should not expect the audience to read. They should look at you while you are talking, as if you talk to your friends. To make your talk good, sufficient rehearsal is important for your own confidence. At least you will not get blank (in your mind) when you feel stressful on the stage! Doing more presentation can help!

You should also make better uses of your visual aid, talking is boring, try use interesting image and chart to help, so make good use of slide title too. It helps your audience not to get lost. And no Chinese whenever possible! It is an English presentation!

Lastly, one group rarely asked sensible questions, which made them score bad in presentation!

Report 2018

Warning: SixChill said they collected 480 samples but I only get 330, and it was not in the format the project requires! Update your data collected to me ASAP!!!

Executive summery should go first! It is for the top executives to read. Make it short but showing all your good points there!

Many of you must have tasted it: the cooperation in project is most important. The project is just too big to work without reasonable coordination. So communication is of prime importance!!! Make yourselves nice and easy to work with! Always smile! The school is a miniature of the society, which you will work in. It is very different from home in which you have all the unconditional loves and concerns. You have to work out your relations with strangers, even as bad as Billy a guy, you have to talk to!

I can see many of you could create charts and diagrams that can show your points! Very good! I also see that you could get hold of the questionnaire and used that wisely with your understanding! Amazing!! Yet some charts that you created were in Chinese!! That is no good! It is an English report. Make it English whenever possible! But strange enough not all groups worked on regression analysis, which is a very powerful tool in excel! Statistics is the most modern tool to human investigations. Try your best to understand how you may use it to illustration and prove your points!

Some of you used a lot secondary sources for your project. Very nice, it shows your ideas with good supports. But be careful, do not use that too much. It mudded your work and your own contributions in the study! Keep those only support your point or those that will lead audiences to your work! Another deficiency was that the citations were not yet professional. You will learn how to do that in the second semester! Looking forward to working you out again!

Presentaion 2017

One group failed because they had serious fraud in fabricating data. The 96 samples they submitted the first time was not used! And, the very little part of data (only 41) they had collected was far from sufficient. It would be unfair to the other groups if I do not fail them! Unlucky are those hardworking students in the failed group. They should try very very hard for their examination.

For the rest of the 3 groups, very good job, I could see your spirits of group work! Only by cooperation of all group members you could achieve. Some of you got good connections and skills so they could collect huge amount of data! Many of you spent quite some efforts to create the many charts and diagrams in your analyses. And then, you had very good ideas on marketing indeed! Not only you could use terms like demographics, some of you got some ideas on trends and psychology too, though simple.

Many of you could structure of the presentations quite well: start with the overview and easy analysis, then the more difficult ones. For analysis, it was nice to start with the profile, like gender, then some charts, and lastly the regression analysis.

After the analysis, many of you could make use of the results to formulate some marketing ideas. This was only your first business project; what you could achieve was nice! Later, you shall learn to use the results more directly. Instead of applying the general idea of the analysis results, you shall try to pinpoint to a problem by using your specific results. Actually, the group with many multiple column charts could explain their uses of the results fluently. Look at their ways of creating charts, their success was in their details! All of you can do that! You only need more practices.

For the Q&A session, most of you could perform quite well, at least you tried to get to the points! But do not let your audience wait too long, you should answer their questions within 90 seconds, otherwise, you lose all their focus. Sometimes, an expression of brief idea would be nice, you do not need to go into detail. Shorten your response time! Or you may say you do not know how; although it is very bad to do that. you have to respond like an adult. And, try not to show your emotions in your presentation. The presentation is about communicating your idea. Your emotion would only hinder people reception to your messages.

Congratulations! I could see that, generally, you could handle the project. Even the failed group was only lazy, they would have flied if they worked hard.

Demo 2016

Well done your demonstration! Most of you could accomplish the most important part of analysis! For those who could not output satisfactory results, you may continue on your data collection. Statistics is a strange thing: generally, the bigger the sample size, the better the results. I wish you recorded down what I commented right when you finished your demo; you are going to have a even better presentation. Below I have some general comments across all groups. Make sure the environment will be ready before you start, all by yourselves, e.g. lighting, projectile, air conditionings, audience attentions, etc.

Report 2016

Nice to have your reports, some of you did spend good effort on them! Congratulations! You will know that your hard work will pay off when you start your career! Well, but after all, you are still not graduated, no one work is perfect. Below are some comments for your project reports.

On the GOOD side:

Some of you presented your extra work clearly, like SUMPRODUCT, BOXPLOT, and SPSS. And some found some good resources for further research, too! Some exceptional job is that some made use of my old data to do some comparisons! That was nice, although that did not help score much. But I appreciate your thinking!!

A lot of you knew your English limitation, communications and cooperation problem too. GOOD, the worst thing is you do not know you have limitation! Well then improve it all your days when you still have an opportunity!

Some of you could elaborate your idea, directly from results. And some can suggest applications to multiple industries! Very well done!!!

On the BAD side:

Some missed out the essentials and could not fulfill all requirements as a report: regression analysis, tables, multicolumn charts or even the subject of conclusion! They are tools to help your reasoning!

I suggested a report of 3000 to 4000 words, some wrote only 2000, and there should be much more to report and elaborate. They caught the deer, but forgot the horns!

One very serious problem was plagiarism! NOTE THAT IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM FOR UNDERGRADUTES! One group copied and pasted one paragraph from a webpage (http://www.slideshare.net/IrfanCuj/social-media-57816953). And they forgot to modify properly and leave out some citations without the reference!! They failed the part of conclusion, which occupied 30% of the report and 12% of the project. Luckily, their other parts were not too bad.

Some could not elaborate more on your ideas; ideas seemed to be superficial and without evidence to support the possibility.

Some used SPSS, but the tool was not mentioned!!!!

Ugly tables!!! Serious mistakes! Also, all charts should be inside the content of the report!

Keep on your good work, you will have a bright mind!

I mixed up the classes and dates! Nice idea about what you like to find out, but you are only allowed to make 3 questions! Well, the questions are related to your title and project idea, but your definition of apps may be ambigious. Even "Phone" in iphone is an app! So your Q1 & 2 may not be able to capture good answers for your analysis. Try answer the questions among your group members and you may see the problem. You would better make them more specific.

Order of presentation topic in report is important; it should follow a logical order so that a reader can follow!

Quite good were your projects! I believe you must be quite hard-working on the project. The fight is fierce: The best presenting group scored least in report; the best overall group scored least bonus; the best bonus group was not at best in any other performance.

A few reports look inappropriate: they are gatherings of sentences from this and that websites!! Somehow they deviated too much from the topic of the research. Those who did that score very little. You may have a lot of philosophies, but this report is to prove an idea by data analysis, not by verbal/logical arguments. Try to stick to the focus of the project and with down to earth data analysis. A is A, B is B: that us what we call science. Only till conclusions or business implications you may have more freedom in using your results.

From your reports I know a lot of you have good reflection of your own. GOOD! Very good! Do that every time you finish a piece of work. It will help you grow. Grow fast, you have to grow anyway.

Presentation feedback 2015

Make sure you have emailed to me the most updated version of your data, if you have added more data after the first data submission. I will calculate the bonus on Wednesday (25 Nov) night! Never miss any submission!

Read carefully all requirements. It is a must for work and study. In haste, some of you missed out important parts in reports. Some missed some important analysis. Some missed the basics of reports, like cover page,

Some groups started with an ambition. But when somehow get lost in the middle of the presentation, lost confidence as well. The lesson: Try to get familiar with the material & improve your cheat-sheet writing.

Some results deviated from the objectives too much; and did not appear as a DIRECT relationship with the objectives/business implications. Try to stick to the objectives!

Make your project lean. We all do not know what is right. So trust your members' critics on you. It is painful, but as a student, 75% of the time they are right. It should help eliminate some unnecessary slides and ideas, for the project. Try to make good use of the project objectives as a measure for eliminations.

Not all groups are able to capture all the techniques taught on class, especially about regression (and VBA for e-comm major). Yes, great features are difficult, difficult techniques need time to get familiar with. Thus, try to reserve more time for making a great project.

Some of you can make use of the white board to explain some idea, with lighting control. Good. But it is good to do that in Q&A section; not for regular presentation section (in which you should have better presentation with PPT).

You should be mindful of the relations between different parts of the presentation. Say, analysis shall support your conclusion; the conclusion shall support your business implications, etc. Any deviation from your main task is only guess; which is not the idea of a survey project. What I intended is called modern scientific management.

A good presentation is not by working hard on your own. Try watching more presentations from other groups. It helps a lot.

Answer people clearly, and one at a time. Manage your whole presentation in an orderly manner is very important. Q&A should be very different from arguments like in the marketplace.

Terms to know for project, it should help your projects to come: motives, objectives, overview, background, research method, data collection, analysis, results, findings, conclusions, implications, discussions, limitations, lesson learnt, etc. They shall appear more or less in that order.

Overall, good! Wish you can develop your own style for your professional development.

Project Feedback - 2014

Some of you score very good data bonus, up till 2.6% on top of your actual score in the project. On the other hand, some of you have serious problem in data collection (about mismatched reference number of data) and they got some deduction. Also, some groups have serious penalty due to the following reasons: late submissions during the semester, skipping critical listening or some important sections in the report.

Most of you can write English good enough for business communications. But reporting demands a logical presentation. Some of you failed to follow the instructions and wrote a very bad report. Some conclusions did not have good support from your analysis. Learn more reporting skills in the years to come.

Your analysis should be the most important section for the report but some reports did not make the best use of your hardwork in the analysis to support the conclusion that you like to make. That means most charts in your presentation should also appear in the report.

Some executive summaries are too fancy. An executive summary should be formal and brief for busy people to read the most information in the shortest time.

Some other executive summaries are too vague. You should have made them more related to your actual researches that you have done.

Appendix is for supplementary information you think useful but not important. Some of you wrote something like a conclusion there!
