Data: Viewing habits of teenagers

W/c 3 Nov
1. Explain in your own words the difference between primary and secondary data
add it to your blog
Put a reference (eg a link) as to where you found the information above.

Research what the norm is for teenage viewing habits. What figures can you find out? Average per day, average per week?

Reference where you found the data.

Note down the data set so that you can compare like with like. eg if you found it average hours by day, note down. You should have three figures.

Represent visually your average vs the average teenager vs average for class.

2. Look up how to use Harvard referencing

Write down on your blog how to display information from a book magazine or website, with examples
Add to 1, above, the correct format references, label it clearly Harvard Format

eg.

Mon-Fri last week
Note down 
a sleep (bedtime and wake-time)
b fruit  (quantity per day)
c exercise (over 5 mins of fast heart activity), in duration (minutes)
ROUGHLY!

Represent the amount you exercised each day by a pie chart
Represent the amount of fruit you ate by a line graph


HOMEWORK - PQR class

Bring it to Friday's lesson.

W/c 11 Nov

Using data... creatively.
BBC Height link

Fruit exercise sleep
- Create three line graphs for a, b, c above.
- Add a different colour to show reality vs guesses.
- With one of the graphs, represent the data creatively. Perhaps use symbols of fruit?

Correlation
Is there a correlation between when you went to bed and how much sleep you had?
Is there a correlation between when you woke up and how much sleep you had?

- Put sleep and fruit and exercise all on one graph
What correlations can you deduce? do you get healthier mid-week?

Find two other students and take their data.
Draw the graph with all three data-sets on.
Who is the healthiest, based on this data?
What other conclusions can you find out?

Height
Use the height data for the class.
Bar chart the height of everyone, using keys for gender, in Illustrator.
Add the mean, median and mode and label.

Define the following terms:

  • positive relationship
  • inverse relationship
  • correlation
  • causation


2.1 Critically compare a range of primary and secondary research sources.

Compare primary and secondary research sources

Write down the difference between primary and secondary research.
Of the above, write down what is primary and what is secondary?
Do a comparison with the positives and negatives of both

1.1 Critically compare a range of research tools, methods and skills.
There are various ways you've been learning, doing your own research and developing skills.
eg youtube vs class instruction vs talking to other people

Create a table labelling all the ways and giving them a score out of 10 for which ways you find best. Write a short concluding sentence.






ignore the belowResearch Question
Is there a relationship between a film star's height and their success?

First read the following & on your blog explain what your initial assumptions are? What sounds plausible to you, about the relationship between height and film success? How are you going to define "success"? What different kinds of possible relationships are their and what do they mean? What kinds of problems do you think the research question might pose?






Next in pairs, suggest your first ideas for a RESEARCH PLAN. What data will you need to find? What ideas do you have for possible sources of data?




First gather qualitative data

What are your thoughts on the above question?

What does the pair think? 
Create a three question questionnaire based on five film stars of your choice.
Ask three students.

Gather quantitative data.


2010-2020 what is the total box office for your five film stars?
Based on what quantity films.
