...To: John Smith, Instructor Communication 2200 From: Jane Doe, Student Date: August 25, 2014 Subject: Proposal for Course Project This memo gives the details for my proposed course project for Communication 2200. Problem/Innovation With gas prices at an all time high during this year, a lot of individuals are looking for alternatives to gasoline powered transportation. Many people are turning towards diesel and electric powered cars in order to save money. Some larger engine automobiles such as V8 cylinder engines get as low as 12-15 miles per gallon. I have decided to analyze three different highly recommended, fuel saving automobiles. By researching how much it will cost to buy and maintain three different automobiles, I can determine which automobile will be the best purchase for me. I am interested in this subject not only because I am a student in ASCC’s Automotive program, but also because I am considering purchasing a new vehicle. My family is a one-car family, and the vehicle I purchase will be our family’s primary form of transportation. Audience My audience is the average American car buyer. Average Americans are more interested than ever in fuel economy. They want to know if the best type of vehicle to purchase for transportation – a gasoline, diesel, or electric powered automobile. Topics to be Investigated In this study I plan to cover these points. 1. Which car is the best to use and why? What are the benefits/negatives of each type...

...Can Your Body Tell the Time of Day? (NOTE: If you have thought of a statistics project that you would prefer to tackle instead of the one described below, contact me. I’ll try to make an equivalent project using your particular topic of interest.) Objective: You will measure how body temperature and reaction time vary throughout the course of a day, as well as related questions. In particular, you must address each of the questions below. Question 1: At what time of the day is the body temperature highest? When is it lowest? How much difference is there? Are body temperatures between midnight and noon significantly different than body temperatures between noon and midnight? Question 2: At what time of the day does reaction time peak? When is it the worst? How much difference is there? Are reaction times between midnight and noon significantly different than reaction times between noon and midnight? Questions 1 & 2 again: According to William Garrett, "Reaction time peaks in the early evening at the same time as the maximum body temperature. This is partially because the nerve conduction velocity increases 2.4 meters per second (m/s) for every 1°C increase in body temperature." (Garret, William E., Exercise and Sport Science. New York: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 1999, p. 354.) Do you agree or disagree with Garrett? Question 3: Is there a strong relationship between the reaction time measurements from the “Sheep Tranquilizer Game” and the “Hit the Baseball Test”? Question...
