Abstract

For my Introduction to Statistics Class, I have been tasked with collecting unique, personal data to give insight into my daily routine. I decided to record nine different outcomes (two qualitative and seven quantitative). On February 6, 2025, I began with a blank Excel sheet, and so far, I have 57 full days of data collected. I will continue monitoring my findings for the remainder of the Spring 2025 Semester. Per my project instructions, I must include tables and graphs for my qualitative and quantitative outcomes. So far, I have collected daily quantitative data on my screen time (Instagram and TikTok), panther bucks spent, hours of studying, bike riding time, bedtime, and waking time. My daily qualitative data are "yes" and "no" responses to whether I met with a friend and whether I drank matcha. I hope to analyze trends in my daily routines as a student and research areas of improvement in my data. The information I collect should give me insight through outliers, frequencies, averages, and various other values. After analyzing the project results, I can apply my knowledge to improve or maintain aspects of my daily routine in future semesters.
