Collect Data<\/strong>
Determine sources from which you will collect data, and decide which qualitative and quantitative data to collect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Analyze Data<\/strong>
Produce and evaluate charts, and use appropriate statistical methods to test a hypothesis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find Patterns<\/strong>
Identify patterns to make predictions, create rules and solve other problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decompose Problems<\/strong>
Take large complicated problems, and break them down into manageable pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abstract<\/strong>
Identify similarities and remove details to create a solution that works for many different problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Build Models<\/strong>
Test, tweak and refine an object before building it in real life using design software to predict outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Develop Algorithms<\/strong>
Create solutions using step-by-step instructions that operate like a road map for performing a task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
