In this assessment, you will be conducting your own survey to collect data from a sample and make inferences about the population.

Think of something that interests you. It could be an important issue in the media, a hobby, or something about school.


Be creative here!

Part 1: Develop your research question. What is it that you want to know? A good research question will tell the reader exactly what your study is about and help you maintain your focus throughout the research process.

Part 2: Develop your survey questions. Stick to what you really want to know and be sure that your survey questions will get you the answers you need.

Part 3: Conduct your survey. There are many ways to gather data. You could survey people in your daily life, email your classmates (if possible), survey your friends using technology, etc.
