Mini Research Reflective Journal


The mini research has become a starter for me who never done a research before, by doing this research I was given a chance to practice all the step that were taught before. And I become clearer about the way to find the descriptive statistic, confidence interval, and the hypothesis test from a data. The topic we have done is about the average household annual income in 2010 and 2011 of the 30 chosen countries. From the histogram of that we created based from the data, we found out that the most of the amount of the household annual income was forty thousand to fifty thousand US dollars and the average itself was about thirty six thousand US dollars. But due to lack of strong evidences, so we were not certain that our data were hundred percent accurate. We collected the data from online database which is on the Taylor library website (euromonitor) which is taught before on the Literacy Library workshop.
As my partner and me did this mini research assignment.  I was aware that doing a research is not an easy task to do; we need to do many searching and confirming data in order to get a certain result. But we still not so professional on it so what we have done are the best we can do. Hopefully we can do better on a more accurate data so we can provide a trustable research result.
