By: Noah St.Onge-Colwell

Population?  The population I decided to go with was students from FHS. I decided to pick four students from each grade and also four teachers. I choose to do this because it would be extremely hard to survey every student and teacher. This way I got a feeling of how students and teachers feel on a small scale.

Sampling Technique  The sampling technique I used was a blend of different ones including Stratified Random (4 students from each grade as well as 4 teachers). I also used Systematic, I went to the 5 th student or teacher that I knew in each grade.

Survey Questions! 1. Do you own an iPod, MP3 player, cell phone, pager, etc? Yes or No? 2. On a scale of 1-4 (1 being not strict at all) (4 being extremely strict). How strict are teachers on taking away your electronic devices if it is seen? 3. Do you think that electronic devices should be allowed in class time; If you are not disrupting anyone else? Yes or No? 4. How many times have you had an electronic device taken away, or taken one away? A) Never B) 1-4 times C) 5-8 times D) 9 or more times

Survey Results for #1  19 people answered Yes  1 person answered No

Survey Results for #2  1- 3 people  2- 4 people  3- 5 people  4- 8 people

Survey Results for #3

Survey Results for #4

Possible Bias  Some possible bias that could have occurred during my survey are... I only asked people I knew which left out a major population of the school. While trying to survey students and teachers I asked more students than teachers, I asked 4 from each grade and 4 teachers. I asked more males than females 13:7 ratio and that could be possible bias.

Organization of data  For question 1 the mode is 19.  For question 2 the median is 3, Range is 5.  For question 3 the mode is 11.  For question 4 the mean is 1.8, median is 0, mode is 12. The standard deviation is 2.94.

Noah’s Final Thought! After concluding this survey I learned that almost everyone owns a personal electronic device, They think that teachers are to strict about not being allowed to use them, They should not be used in class and a lot of people never have had there devices taken away or taken any away. The result that surprised me the most was that 11:20 people think that personal electronic devices should not be allowed in class. The result that didn’t surprise me was that 19:20 people own an personal electronic device.

What would I change?  If I could I would take more time and try to ask more students. I would make this a census and ask everyone that goes to FHS. I would eliminate all possible bias and make easier questions. I would use more quantitative data.
