Questionnaire Results


Out of the twenty students, 9 of them chose images and the other 13 students chose an even mixture of both. No students had voted for the magazine to be displayed with mostly text. 

 
The type of news that the magazine should cover will be college news since 11 out of the 20 students chose the college news option. The other 9 students had chosen to make the magazine cover college and local news.


This chart shows that 14 students want their college magazine to be free, rather than paying for it. On the other hand, 6 other students want the magazine to be purchased, due to results; the college magazine will be free.


For the 6 students that wanted the magazine to be purchased, they were asked to choose a price. 2 students chose 25p, 3 chose 50p and only one student chose 75p. No student would pay a £1 for the magazine.




The chart shows the amount of students who enjoy reading, 13 of them do enjoy reading, and the other 7 students do not. This could also show the rough percentage of students that will bother to read the college magazine when published.


 This chart shows the amount of students who would want a page for a quiz/crossword, 13 voted yes for a page for crosswords & quizzes, and the remaining 7 voted no.



In this graph 14 students wanted the magazine to be published every term; this was the most selected choice. Therefore, the magazine will be published every month. Following the highest vote, was the monthly choice with 8 students voting. Lastly, only 3 students voted for the magazine to be published.



The 20 students had voted on what should be in the college magazine, education, entertainment, culture or other. One student voted for a educational magazine, 8 voted for a entertainment magazine, 5 voted for a cultural magazine and 5 students voted other. Other ideas were about relationship issues and life topics.



 In this graph, there is a three way tie between the choices of a white & purple magazine, a green & white magazine and a red& white magazine. These votes had 4 students each, while the other 8 students voted; 2 for blue & black and 3 votes each for blue & yellow and blue & white.



 There was an obvious difference in the amount of students that wanted to contribute to the college magazine. The majority of students had voted yes, to have a contribution page for the magazine; this can allow them to get their voices heard in whatever they may want to say by advertising thing onto the contribution page. This also shows the amount of people that may have greater ideas for the whole magazine.



The age of the students varied with; 11 students that were 16 years old, 8 students that were 17 years old and just 1 student that was 18. The reason I chose to distribute the questionnaires to the younger students, rather than the older students is because the younger students will be in the college longer than the older students who are soon to be leaving the college, therefore the college magazine should be based on what the younger generation of student want. 



This graph shows the equality between the two sexes that have made a decision on the college magazine’s development. 10 males and 10 females were given this questionnaire, just to show that both male and female students equally had a fair chance to contribute to the making of the magazine.
