Cell+Phones+stats

Me and rocky have created this document to try and persuade Mr Diver to unbanned cell phones. **Learning Intention:** To plan and conduct a survey using the statistical enquiry cycle; determining appropriate variables and measures; gathering and sorting data; finding patterns, variations, relationships and trends. Using this information to present findings and submit a letter to make a change in our school.

**Student Reflection:** From our survey 55% were male the other 45% were female. 71% were Year 8 and 29% were Year 7. 73% have cell phones and 27% don't. 71% weren't allowed cell phones at there old school and 29% were. 78% think that cell phones should not be banned T,I,S and 22% think that they should be banned. 56% think that we should not be allowed to use them in class, the other 44% think that we should be allowed to use them in class. 65% would use it in an emergency 7% would just show off there phone. 50% would just use it to tell there mum to pick them up. 49% would text there mum and friends and 11%would do none of above.
