 Collect data from 30–50 classmates.
o Ask:
 Daily smartphone usage (in hours)
 Last semester percentage
Step 2: Apply Statistics
1. Measures of Central Tendency
 Mean screen time
 Mean percentage
 Median
 Mode
2. Measures of Variability
 Range
 Standard Deviation
3. Graphical Representation
 Bar graph (Usage categories)
 Pie chart (Low, Moderate, High users)
 Histogram (Marks distribution)
 Scatter plot (Usage vs Marks)
Division of Work (8 Members)
1. Introduction to topic
2. Literature background (simple internet review)
3. Data collection
4. Data entry in Excel
5. Central tendency calculation
6. Variability calculation
7. Graph preparation
8. Case presentation + Conclusion
Case Presentation Example
Case of Rahul: Uses phone 8 hours daily, marks dropped from 75% to 60%.
Analyse:
 Compare Rahul’s score with class mean.
 Is he above/below average?
 What does SD show?

PROJECT IDEA 2: Sleep Duration and Concentration Level in UG Students


Objective:
Does sleep affect concentration?
Data Collection:
 Sleep hours per day
 Self-rated concentration score (1–10 scale)
Statistical Application:
 Mean sleep hours
 Mean concentration score
 SD of both
 Compare low sleep (<6 hrs) vs normal sleep (7–8 hrs)
Graphs:
 Histogram of sleep hours
 Bar graph of concentration categories
 Line graph comparison
Case Presentation:
Case of Aditi: Sleeps 4 hours, reports low concentration (3/10)
Analyse:
 Compare her with class mean
 What does range and SD indicate?

PROJECT IDEA 3: Stress Levels During Exams


Objective:
Measure stress levels before exams.
Data:
 Stress rating (1–10)
 Hours of study
 Hours of sleep
Apply:
 Mean stress score
 Median
 Mode
 SD
 Range
Graphs:
 Pie chart (Low/Moderate/High stress)
 Bar graph
 Histogram

Case of Neha: High stress (9/10), sleeps 4 hrs, studies 10 hrs.
Analyse variability and compare with group mean.

PROJECT IDEA 4: Social Media vs Face-to-Face Interaction


Objective:
