Telecommunication Survey In Humanities weve been studying telecommunication and we had to get in a group and` create a survey.

We had to find a research question and make questions for people to answer, but the questions have to answer our research question. My research question was How is telecommunication changing?

We choose these questions because it helped us answer our research questions, we asked these people; (Tara MORRISON; Sebastian WARING; Maya HALDORSEN; Fallon PARFAITE; Mintra MORRISON;
Justin PANG; Julia LAGUETTE; Jade VANICHVIRULH; Riyaphorn VASHIRAPHIPHOB; Jordan FERDINANDUS; Brian JOHNSON; Teresa TUNG; Tiffany SIMMS; Suzanne VAN DE VENNE; Chaweewan VOSKO; Natalie LINDON; Roger MANTEL; Raymond NALL; Laddawan KOOMROB; Celine (Inger) UNNEBERG; Good (Chutiwat) SURAVUDHIKUL; Sam (Ruckkit) KITSOMSUB; Puneet (Panchai) SIRIPANYAWUTH)

We chose it randomly because if we chose who we wanted to send the survey it would be bias. We got 38 replys. If I could do something differently or I had to do it again, I would check my questions carefully because in the survey we have had a lot of mistakes and people have been skipping the questions they dont understand. I would change the way we organized the questions, I think it should be neater. I would also add more answers because we didnt have enough. In the survey we had a lot of the same answers our results clearly showed us that a lot of people do the same thing for example Facebook, we had 35 people say they have Facebook and they go on it.
Our survey questions were;

As you could see everybody is using social network, especially Facebook. Just by looking at this you can see that the modern world is developing very quickly and everyone is using the same thing Just because all of this development has been quick, all the cost of things dropping. Telecommunication has been developing because of all of this. According to one of our answers in one of our questions people like it better with telecommunication. They also think that telecommunication should change. This relates to my research question because based on our knowledge we know that people in the old days dont like telecommunications but the people nowadays thinks that it is hard to survive without it. We can tell right away that this has changed. There is many strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in this survey. One of the strength that I learnt from this survey is it is so much easier to communicate with people, there happens to be a few weaknesses. The first one is a lot of people can get cyber bullied and has been through bad things because of telecommunication. An Opportunity is kind of like strengths, Telecommunication makes it easier to connect with people, to talk to your families and friends and a treat can be just like weaknesses, you can get bullied and it may cause some problems to you. Just by looking at this survey it tells be a lot about what people think about telecommunication and what they all face when they are using it.
