Project Author: Elisa Oliver

After investigating statistical claims of 2020 election fraud (starting with a Supreme Court case), students present on misleading claims in a context of their own choosing. Then, they review current experimental studies on strategies to combat misinformation. This project fits well alongside the AP Stats unit on inference for proportions or as a stand alone end-of-year project.
