1.3 Subject description
In a world where more data and more complex data is readily available, understanding and applying the
principles of data analysis drives timely decision making which is an essential skill to any student. This
subject provides students with an introduction to data analysis, contextualised using data sources you
commonly encounter in business environments. Students cover the foundational principles of data
analysis, which are the selection, analysis and interpretation of data. The subject demonstrates that the
research question you wish to answer, drives the data selection and the analysis method. The
interpretation and clear communication of the subsequent findings ensure correct decision making,
which in turn drives business success.
1.4 Subject learning outcomes and course learning outcomes
On successful completion of this subject, you will be able to:
describe the practical relevance of data analysis for application in business contexts
identify and outline a range of data sources, types and analysis methods relevant to business
management
apply appropriate methods, interpret results and recommend actions to make insightful business
decisions and solve business related problems

These outcomes will contribute to your overall achievement of course learning outcomes.

CLO3: Demonstrate initiative, independence, judgement, and reflective practice with a commitment to
lifelong learning and professional development
CLO4: Critically evaluate, interpret and communicate information, data and resources in academic and
digital contexts
CLO8: Select, analyse and interpret quantitative and qualitative data, using appropriate methodologies
and applications and convey findings and recommendations through effective written and oral
communication
CLO9: Apply technical and digital skills, including literacy and numeracy necessary for professional
practice in business

1.5 Student feedback on subject and teaching
Students are at the heart of JCU and as part of our commitment to improving the quality of our subjects
and teaching, we regularly seek feedback on the JCU student experience.
YourJCU Surveys are available to all students through LearnJCU. You will receive an email invitation
when the survey opens.

In response to previous student feedback and other data, the following enhancements to this subject
have been made:
Page 5 of 21
Free open access to our class e-textbook. Contains a wide range of excercises and solutions for
students to practice in their own time along with other interactive activities that can be
accessed;
Use of engaging tools, such as Gamification through implementation of ‘Quizizz’ within our
synthesis sessions which promote collaboration and interaction amongst students but also assist
with preparing for our assessments;
Assessments to include both written work (i.e. statistical report), as well as online exams;
Synthesis sessions were delivered online, these are now be held face to face, with options to
participate online as well; and
Student feedback by externally enrolled students have asked for weekly online sessions.

There are a variety of in-built excercises throughout the text book available for students to practice and
assist with consolidating their knowledge. These include: end of section practice and homework sets,
examples of each topic are explained step-by-step throughout the text and followed by a Try It problem
(Bookshare, 2021).

There are also collaborative exercises and statistics labs designed to give students the opportunity to work
together and explore key concepts (Bookshare, 2021).

Students may also practice further free excercises via Grasple.

Generative AI use
Generative AI tools are restricted in this assessment item
In this assessment, you can use Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in order to assist
with literature review research only. Any use of generative AI must be appropriately
acknowledged and include a Declaration of AI-Generated Material.

ASSESSMENT ITEM 1: DESCRIPTION
The aim of this assessment is for you to apply knowledge gained from weeks 1 to 3 which covers
foundational principles relating to descriptive statistics and demonstrate mastery of the associated
statistical techniques introduced within this unit. You are then assessed on your ability to synthesise this
information and present and communicate your findings effectively through the production of a statistical
report.
There are three topic scenarios available (access folder ‘Assessment 1’ via LearnJCU) from which you are
to select only one. You will need to locate relevant data sources relating to the chosen topic and undertake
the appropriate statistical methods and tests in response to the questions put forward using MS Excel
data analysis tools.
Page 9 of 21
As the author of this statistical report, you are to write from the point of view of a statistician,
communicating the contents within the report to the relevant department as stated within the selected
scenario.
Step 1: Select a topic of interest from the three scenarios provided within our LearnJCU Assessment 1
folder.

Step 2: Download both the Statistical Report template and Excel file template provided within our
LearnJCU Assessment 1 folder.

Step 3: Research relevant data sources from the suggested websites provided within the selected topic
scenario [Step 1]. Select data and input this raw data directly into the Excel file template provided within
our LearnJCU Assessment 1 folder [Step 2]. Cite the data source within your excel file and statistical report.

Step 4: Explore relevant course readings and conduct exercises within our “Descriptive Statistics” learning
unit. Read and incorporate wider literature, including journal articles and grey literature on your chosen
topic to support your statistical report. For help on how to find journal articles go to the “Finding Journal
Articles” page in your library web site. The link refers to this
page: https://www.jcu.edu.au/library/find/journal-articles/finding-journal-articles.

Step 5: Conduct necessary statistical techniques required on the selected data within the excel template
provided. Produce required tables, charts required as stipulated within the chosen scenario file [Step 1].
The Statistical Excel Guide located within our Assessment 1 folder is a useful reference guide which may
assist with this exercise.

Step 6: Produce a statistical report in conjunction with the template provided within our LearnJCU
Assessment 1 folder [Step 2]. Specific formatting instructions include:
? The report must be typed in Microsoft Word format. The word limit is 1000 words (excluding
tables, and figures) and you must strictly adhere to this word limit. The report must be typed in 12
point Time New Roman font, double spaced and 2.5 cm margins. Insert tables and graphical
displays of your data analysis in the text where appropriate. Use bullet points sparingly.
? You may include any additional (supporting) information in the appendices at the end of the
assessment item. Information in the appendices should only be included if it is referred to in the
body of the assignment. Word count within the appendix are not included.
? Please provide numbered headings and reference sources to any charts, tables, images etc used
within the statistical report. Provide a brief explanation highlighting the main points or
implications of these.
? Provide references in APA 7th format . Words within the Reference list will not contribute towards
word count, however all quotes and intext citations will count towards the word count. For help
on how to reference go to https://libguides.jcu.edu.au/apa
? Further details on report writing will be provided on LearnJCU. Guidance on the preparation of
the report also will be discussed by your lecturers during workshop/online sessions.

Step 7: You are to submit two files within learnjcu dropbox: (1) A Word Document which is the Statistical
Report and (2) The excel file used containing the data, the statistical techniques performed and charts
produced.
