Scenario

You belong to a neighborhood group that meets monthly for informational talks. You are in charge of the upcoming talk and your topic is recycling. You may live in an area that has a recycling bin that gets emptied on a weekly basis, but your informational talk will focus on recycling centers near you. You are tasked with reporting to your neighbors where to recycle hazardous waste, electronics, and appliances that will not fit in or are not appropriate for the bins. You will need to make a handout in a Word document for your neighbors to take with them.

Research

Research what hazardous waste is and why it should be recycled properly. Do the same for electronics and appliances, noting your sources along the way.

  1. Using the Internet, find three recycling centers near your neighborhood. Among these three there should be options for recycling hazardous waste, electronics, and appliances; a single recycling center may not accept all three of these, but make sure between the three recycling centers that these needs are met. You will make note of what recyclables they accept, their locations, and their phone numbers for a table you will create. Keep track of the sources of this information for your reference page.
  2. Locate photos or images of each of the three types of recycling: hazardous waste, electronics, and appliances; making sure to note the sources of each photo or image.
  3. Using the information from your research, write an introductory paragraph, a one-paragraph summary for each of the three types of recycling, and a conclusion paragraph, for a total of five paragraphs. You will use these paragraphs in the document you create below.

Word Document

Use Word to create a helpful and professional-looking document for your neighborhood group.

  1. Create a new blank Word document. Do not use a template.
  2. Save the document with the filename Recycling_MEID.docx. Replace “MEID” with your actual MEID.

Document Editing

  1. Use the new document you created to complete the following:
    1. Choose a theme other than the Office default. Change the theme colors and the theme fonts from the Office default.
    2. Give your handout an appropriate title using WordArt and center the title at the top of the page.
    3. Create a border around the title and apply a fill color of your choice. Make sure you can still easily read the text.
    4. Give your handout a subtitle using your name. The subtitle should be centered under the title and have an appropriate style applied.
    5. Insert your five paragraphs (introduction, hazardous waste recycling, electronics recycling, appliance recycling, and conclusion) from your research. Be sure to insert APA-style in-text citations to credit the sources of your information and include entries in your References section at the end of your handout.
    6. Format your report using single line-spacing for your five paragraphs, and 1-inch left and right margins.
  2. Use the following features to make your report eye-catching:
    1. Insert a heading for each of the five paragraphs and apply an appropriate style to the headings.
    2. Insert a picture of each of the three types of recycling within the corresponding text of your handout. Resize each image to an appropriate size and apply text wrapping to ensure the picture remains with the corresponding paragraph. Make sure to add a caption to each image and include entries in your References section at the end of your handout.
    3. Apply a picture style to each image.
  3. Before your conclusion paragraph, insert a 4×4 table to give the details of the three recycling centers for your neighbors’ handy reference. Your first row should contain the column headings of the Name of the Recycling Center, Address, Phone Number, and What Recyclables they Accept. (Although you must list if they accept hazardous waste, electronics, and/or appliances, you may choose to list other items they also accept.) In the Accepted Recyclables column, bold the text that identifies hazardous waste, electronics, and appliances recyclables. Apply a Table Style other than the Office default.
  4. Your conclusion paragraph can be a summary of your information or a call-to-action for your neighbors to properly recycle.
  5. Insert a Watermark indicating that your handout is a Draft.
  6. Check spelling and grammar.
  7. Insert a three-column Footer with your name, MEID, and course/section number.

Scenario

Your local library is hosting a technology night and they have asked you to create a brief overview of three different cellphones from three different cellular service providers. Your job is not to sway your audience, but to provide a small amount of information.

Research

  1. Using the Internet, search the sites of three different cellular providers and/or manufacturers to find information on new cellphones. For each of the three cellphones you will need to find information on who manufactures the cellphone, what the model is, how much memory it has, what operating system it runs on, and what colors are available. You will also need to find out which cellular provider you will purchase it from and how much it will cost. You will select a different manufacturer and model at each cellular provider’s site, so you end up with three different models of cellphone and three different providers.
  2. Locate a photo or image of each cellphone, making sure to note the source.

PowerPoint Presentation

  1. Create a new blank PowerPoint presentation.
  2. Save the presentation with the filename CellphoneComparison_MEID.pptx. Replace “MEID” with your actual MEID.

Create a 10- to 12-slide presentation with speaker notes and audio. Your audience is the City Council members who are responsible for deciding whether the city invests in resources to set in motion the smart parking space app. 

Purpose 

This assignment illustrates how data analytics can be used to create strategies for sustainable organizational success while integrating the organization’s mission with societal values. You’ll apply statistical time series modeling techniques to identify patterns and develop time-dependent demand models. You’ll practice organizing and delivering a presentation to senior decision-makers. The PowerPoint presentation includes an audio component in addition to speaker notes.

Resources: Attached Data File

Scenario: A city’s administration isn’t driven by the goal of maximizing revenues or profits but instead looks at improving the quality of life of its residents. Many American cities are confronted with high traffic and congestion. Finding parking spaces, whether in the street or a parking lot, can be time consuming and contribute to congestion. Some cities have rolled out data-driven parking space management to reduce congestion and make traffic more fluid.

You’re a data analyst working for a mid-size city that has anticipated significant increments in population and car traffic. The city is evaluating whether it makes sense to invest in infrastructure to count and report the number of parking spaces available at the different parking lots downtown. This data would be collected and processed in real-time, feeding an app that motorists can access to find parking space availability in different parking lots throughout the city.

Instructions: Work with the provided Excel database. This database has the following columns:

  • LotCode: A unique code that identifies the parking lot
  • LotCapacity: A number with the respective parking lot capacity
  • LotOccupancy: A number with the current number of cars in the parking lot
  • TimeStamp: A day/time combination indicating the moment when occupancy was measured
  • Day: The day of the week corresponding to the TimeStamp
  • Insert a new column, OccupancyRate, recording occupancy rate as a percentage with one decimal. For instance, if the current LotOccupancy is 61 and LotCapacity is 577, then the OccupancyRate would be reported as 10.6 (or 10.6%).
  • Using the OccupancyRate and Day columns, construct box plots for each day of the week. You can use Insert > Insert Statistic Chart >Box and Whisker for this purpose. Is the median occupancy rate approximately the same throughout the week? If not, which days have lower median occupancy rates? Which days have higher median occupancy rates? Is this what you expected?
  • Using the OccupancyRate and LotCode columns,construct box plots for each parking lot. You can use Insert > Insert Statistic Chart >Box and Whisker for this purpose. Do all parking lots experience approximately equal occupancy rates?Are some parking lots more frequented than others? Is this what you expected?
  • Select any 2 parking lots. For each one, prepare as scatter plot showing occupancy rate against TimeStamp for the week 11/20/2016 –11/26/2016. Are occupancy rates time dependent? If so, which times seem to experience highest occupancy rates? Is this what you expected?

Presentation: 

Create a 10- to 12-slide presentation with speaker notes and audio. Your audience is the City Council members who are responsible for deciding whether the city invests in resources to set in motion the smart parking space app.

Complete the following in your presentation:

  • Outline the rationale and goals of the project.
  • Utilize boxplots showing the occupancy rates for each day of the week. Include your interpretation of results.
  • Utilize box plots showing the occupancy rates for each parking lot. Include your interpretation of results.
  • Provide scatter plots showing occupancy rate against time of day of your selected four parking lots. Include your interpretation of results.
  • Make a recommendation about continuing with the implementation of this project.
