Your task:
• Create a survey question to ask a random
sample of ____ (between 15-20) students.

• The question must generate numerical results.


(For example: NOT “What’s your favorite color?,”
because you won’t get a numerical value as a
response!!)

• Once you have collected the responses, you


will analyze the results of your question.

• Find the measures of center and variation,


and create the graphs that we learned about
in class.

• Create a presentation (power point, prezi,


padlet, sway) to show the results of your
survey question and you will present it to the
class.
