This document outlines an activity to practice analyzing statistical data and presenting results in writing. Students are instructed to download offense data from a law enforcement agency, calculate statistical measures for various crime categories, and write a paragraph on each crime presenting the results. The specific steps are to download data, calculate the mean, median, mode, max, min, and range for categories like violent crime, murder, rape, robbery, and property crime, and write a paragraph on each crime's results.

1. Although analyzing statistical data can be challenging, it is
equally challenging to convert these data into a written format.
Therefore, in this activity, you will practice the important skill
of data analysis and presenting statistical information in a
written format. Using the provided datasets of offenses
reported, calculate the mean, median, mode, max, min, and
range for each of the crimes. The list of crimes includes violent
crime total, murder and non-negligent manslaughter, legacy
rape, revised rape, robbery, aggravated assault, property crime
total, burglary, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft.
The specific steps are as follows:
Download 1 of the following datasets of offenses from the
Uniform Crime Report:
Accomack County Sheriff's Office
Honolulu Police Department
Los Angeles Police Department

each of the following:
Violent crime total
