Week 10: One Final Bow

I felt the week’s work click into place with a rush of clarity and purpose. Surveys were cleaned, theories revisited, and every section of the project moved toward its final form.

I turned raw survey responses into a clear results section. I spent hours scripting in R to clean data, check filters, and remove any responses that did not meet quality standards. Those efforts produced neat tables and charts that reveal exactly how youth and seniors view the cold and flu vaccine.

I then refined the discussion and conclusion, tracing each key number back to themes of trust, safety, and perceived need. Reading recent studies helped me ground every point in solid science. I drafted, revised, and smoothenedd transitions until each paragraph flowed naturally into the next.

Now, a research study wouldn’t be complete without sketching a future research proposal in a short paragraph. I outlined how focus groups or a follow-up survey could track attitude changes over time. Writing that section meant balancing ambitious ideas with realistic steps, like sample sizes and timelines.

Finally, I polished the slides for a crisp presentation, then ran timed rehearsals to keep the talk under ten minutes. Testing layouts and practicing out loud made sure the narrative would land smoothly.

Now the paper reads as a single journey from question to conclusion. The slides bring that journey to life in ten minutes of clear storytelling. I’m proud to share this final product and to roll the credits on my senior project.
