e-Waste Survey
Many students in our school are not aware of e-Waste. This assignment will help you practice writing survey questions, creating graphs, and drawing tables. These data management tools should accurately represent your results. For your culminating activity, you and a partner will create four survey questions on the topic of eWaste in your school. After you have worded your survey questions, you will take your results and place them in appropriate tables, and illustrate your findings through a minimum of three different style graphs (using technology and by hand). Write a one page double-spaced paper demonstrating your understanding of the data you collected, and what inferences you can make from it. Lastly, you and your partner will present your findings to the class, and answer any questions your classmates and teacher may have for you.
