SPORTS AND HOMEWORKCAN CAN YOU DO BOTH? By Abbey Lobsinger , Matthew Shuttleworth and Dominic Urbanowicz

Introduction Sport and homework The topic that my group and I have chosen is the correlation between the amount of time spent doing sports and the amount of time spent doing homework. We wanted to find out if doing a lot of one would affect the amount done on the other. In order to do this we each went around the school and took a survey, each student was asked 2 questions. One, how many hours of sport do you participate in per week, and the second, how many hours of homework do you do per week? We collected all the data and turned it into 2 main graphs. In the first line graph.

Aim Sport and homework Our aim when conducting our research was to see if there was a clear correlation between the time spent on home work and sport.

Hypothesis Sport and homework Our prediction was that the when the student is doing more homework/sport it would affect the time spent doing the other.

Method Sport and homework In order to find our data we created a survey and went around collecting data from 50 students finding how much sport and how much homework they do each week. When all the data is collected to help compare the results we created two graphs. These graphs would help us really see if our hypothesis is correct.

Charts Sport and homework In this graph you can clearly see when the blue line (the time spent homework) spikes up the green line (the time spent on sport) decreases heavily and the same when the green line spikes. This is clear evidence to support our theory that the more time spent doing homework/sport the less time doing the other.

Charts Sport and homework This trend line (the straight blue line) within this graph clearly indicates that when the time spent doing homework increases the time doing sport decreases. Providing even more evidence to our hypothesis.

Conclusion Sport and homework In conclusion, using the data collected and the graphs it is clear that there is a correlation between the time spent on homework and the time spent on sport. When more time is spent doing one it is usually at the cost of the other (of course with the odd outlier).
