Does your class look like the world — and can you prove it in 60 seconds?

Research Presentation

â–¶ Enter Project

Context

A conference wants a one-minute data story: how does YOUR room use, judge, or fear AI versus how the world does? You research the global picture, survey the room live, and present the gap.

Mission

Learn Delegation, Description, Discernment, and Diligence: choose research tasks (Researcher finds global data, Surveyor runs polls, Compiler charts counts, Presenter packages it), then practice Discernment: decide which global figure matters, which survey bias to disclose, which claim the data actually supports.

Finish Line

A 60-second presentation with 2–3 charts: local survey data beside real global figures, landing one sharp, data-backed claim about the gap. The claim itself is the artefact—no hedging, no "we think".

    Written positioning: where the student places themselves on the automation spectrum, with evidence for at least two positions on the map.

  • Researcher

    owns the world

    • Pulls 3 real global figures with sources
    • Keeps every number traceable
    • Frames the question the survey must answer
  • Surveyor

    owns the room

    • Turns the question into clean survey items
    • Runs the poll and captures honest raw counts
    • Maps each item to a global stat for comparison
  • Compiler

    owns the charts

    • Drives data-to-chart on counts + global figures
    • Makes the contrast readable at a glance
    • Refuses charts that hide the gap
  • Presenter

    owns the minute

    • Builds the deck with research-to-deck
    • Lands one sharp local-vs-world claim
    • Delivers in 60 seconds, no overrun
