We began by asking students some basic questions such as their age, grade and gender. Next we followed with questions about their academics like what stream of classes they were enrolled in, if they have ever failed a class before, if they had a history of skipping classes or not, and what their future educational plans were, to see whether or not they planned to further pursue their education or not. Other questions were asked to see if they had any other responsibilities outside of school or not, being whether or not they withheld a job, and if so, approximately how many hours a week they worked. .
.
We then we finished making up the survey, we handed them out randomly to passer byers in the halls of our school. The people we asked to fill it out were completely random, but we aimed to get an even amount of males, females, and age groups. .
After all of the surveys had been distributed and collected back, we entered all of the data onto the computers so that we could see the results clearer and it was also easier to read.
.
Once they were all typed into the computers, we printed off the survey results and were each given one so that we could all calculate the different averages and differences between any categories, and try to find any co-relations between any subjects.Any differences Between Males and Females?.
.
According to the statistics compiled from my school, there appears to be no huge difference between the number of males and females enrolled in the different levels of highschool academic streams. The vast majority of students tend to be at the academic level with females at 63% enrollment, and males at 60%. The applied level has a difference of 10%, being that females are enrolled in applied subjects at 30% and males at 40%.
The one difference shows to be that, out of the males surveyed, there were none enrolled in a mix of applied and academic classes, it was either one or the other.
