When you do get some data, remember to keep the analysis manageable, and use methods with which you are familiar. For example, calculating percentages (frequencies) and means can transform raw data into manageable chunks. For this project the key is to keep your data analysis simple - when you have more time you can explore the fancy stuff. Think about how you will present the data. Will it be in tables and/or graphs?
My suggestion is that you load your data into a spreadsheet so you can easily manipulate it, and create graphs if that is the way you wish to illustrate your findings. It is important to explain your findings to the reader whether they are presented in tables or graphs. The results section should have tables of data which has been manipulated e.g. means or frequencies. Tables which show basic data with little done to it, can be added to the appendices in your final report.
Results of polls
It looks like people favour some synchronous sessions in the evening at 7.30 pm. There is a mix of preference for a question and answer session and a social get together, and the majority would like to hear from an expert. Keep your eyes on the blog for announcements.
