For your data analysis project, you have been asked to find and analyze a publicly-available dataset, and to use that analysis to answer questions asked of the data.
The point of this assignment is to give you in-depth experience working with a dataset, coming up with questions, and doing data analysis and visualization to answer those questions. In two weeks you'll be asked to turn in some preliminary analysis, and two weeks after that the final analysis.
You first need to find two public datasets, and identify some questions that you can answer with those datasets. Some places that you can look are:
Briefly describe the two datasets that you presented to your group (a sentence or two for each, including a link to where you found the datasets and the kinds of questions that you might ask of each dataset). Which dataset are you going to analyze, and why did you choose that one?

Describe the dataset that you chose in more detail (i.e., the winner of the two you were thinking about). In particular, talk about:
Make sure to put references to relevant web pages, articles, etc. in your answers - this is an important part of the project, and will significantly affect your grade! You can add links either by putting the URL in directly (i.e., www.google.com) or by using this syntax:
[text](URL)
(note that this latter method is preferred for long URLs).
