Our Research
By Megan Crawford
and Amy Ullman
Topic and why?
Our research question is: what do people in our
class think about the size, layout and conditions
of classrooms in our school?
We chose this because we want to find out if
children our age think the same as we do about
our topic.
Method
We sent out questionnaires because we thought it was
easier, quicker and more practical than interviews.
Some examples of our questions are:
What do you think of the size of the classroom?
Do you think the temperature of the classroom affects
how you work and learn?
Do you think sitting next to someone who isn’t of your
choice distracts you from your work?
Data collection
We sent them out to or class because they know
us well and could trust us so they weren't afraid to
ask any questions. We sent them out in
registration and asked them to fill them out there
and then so we could make sure we got them all
filled out. It went very well and there was no
problems.
Our results
In the next few slides we will show you our
results from our questionnaires.
