Supplemental Assignment 1

Choose one of the Other data sources shown at the bottom of the the first supplemental lesson on getting higher education data from common sources and create a Markdown document that does two things:

1. Explains the source and its usefulness for higher education research (one paragraph)
2. Gives step-by-step directions with links and screenshots on how to find and download the data

NOTE: A couple of the Other sources are general links to organizations with a number of data sources (e.g. the Bureau of Labor Statistics). Choose one data source if there are more than one.

A good document will include:

1. Clear instructions for finding and downloading the data without missing steps
2. Properly formatted links that work
3. Screenshots that either
   1. Include boxes, arrows, and text to help the eye
   2. Include very detailed captions/notes that explain where to look, what to click, etc
4. A clear connection to higher education research
