Lesson 1
Transport questionnaire
This lesson is an introductory lesson, which introduces the students to the
techniques needed to write good survey questions. They prepare the rough
draft of their survey.
Lesson 3/4
Data collection and analysis
This lesson is spent delivering the survey to the target group. The students
will work in groups to deliver the survey, collect it in and conduct initial
analysis and data collection. As this process will vary in length according to
the circumstances, it may run over into two lessons. A flexible approach is
important to give the students time to get the most out of the experience.
Lesson 4/5
Planning your report
This lesson allows the students to prepare a formal report for the target
group, containing the results of the survey and any conclusions reached.
This is good practice as it allows the students to see their work ‘published’
in a real context. If the surveys are delivered within school, these reports
can then be used as the basis for discussion or reply by other classes,
especially within the English department.

Slide 1 – This lesson introduces the students to an unusual text type
which is not often covered by English.

Slide 9 – Here is their brief. As a short extension for a more able class,
it is worth asking who would commission a survey like this and what they
might do with the findings.
There are other more challenging concepts that could be discussed, for
example how you can be sure that your survey has been filled in in good
faith, and how many people need to respond to make it a representative
sample. To analyse further the motive for conducting a survey of this nature,
a high-ability group could be asked to consider how their questions might
change if they were part of an organisation with a travel-based agenda, for
example a car company, a global warming charity or a bus company.

After they have typed out their surveys, the worksheet directs them to
ask a peer to check their work. This stage is important so that potential
ambiguity in phrasing or layout can be identified. Encourage the students
to be constructively critical of each other’s work. It is equally as useless
to be thoughtlessly positive as it is to be thoughtlessly negative.

Your survey
1. Use a clear title that makes it clear what your survey is for
2. Choose a clear, large font that can be easily read
3. Leave enough space around each question so that people do not
get confused
4. Leave space for the audience to reply to your questions – perhaps
insert lines or boxes where you want them to write
5. Spell everything correctly!
6. Read through your questions and make sure you will get the answers
you want
7. Thank your audience at the end for completing your survey
When you have finished, ask a classmate to read it and check that your
questions are clear and make sense.

Ideally, the students should go to their target group and hand out the
letters they have prepared, along with their surveys. It is a nice experience
for them to see their surveys being filled in. If this is not possible, the
teacher should try to have all the surveys ready for the class to analyse
at the start of the lesson.
When everyone is back in the classroom with the piles of surveys, there
is a PowerPoint presentation provided to help guide the students in their
analysis of their newly collected data.

Slide 3 – This technique should be fairly easy to grasp, as many will have
already become familiar with tally charts in other subjects. Some students
will need support at first.

Slide 4 – Many of the students will find this a daunting task. There is a plan
here to help them, plus a list of sentence starters and prompts. Individual
students or classes may need more or less support than this. A worksheet
is provided to help them write their rough draft if necessary.
