Survey requirements

Your survey should collect information that helps determine who will use the library; when and how. For example, how are males who mostly enjoy gaming likely to use the library compared to males who enjoy STEM, females who mostly enjoy hunting, etc.?

You must collect information on

• age

• gender

• interests

• hours

• social goals

• learning goals

• distance to nearest library

• "library of things" wish list

• Where do you hear about programs/events (for anything – not just library)?

• How can teens give back to the library?

You or your group must create a plan for how and when the survey will be administered and who will be surveyed.

• Sample

  • Only a portion of the population is surveyed

  • Random or targeted?

  • Stratified Sampling?

• Census: entire population is surveyed

  • How will you reach the entire population?

Website

You must create a google website for you or your team. It will showcase your survey, methods, and results. It should include descriptions of your objectives and you survey logo, if you created one. It can also show pictures from the survey administration. You will describe the statistical methods applied, including qualitative and quantitative analysis methods, t-tests, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, and error analysis.
