Preview the 2011 questions!

You can now preview the questions for this year’s CensusAtSchool:

http://www.censusatschool.org.nz/2011/questions/

New questions include:

Asking the students for their mother’s favourite learning area when she was at school (in addition to their own favourite learning area). It will be fun to explore if there are any patterns between these two!

A matching pairs memory game. Who’s the fastest?

Rugby World cup predictions – which teams will be in the final and what will be the final score?

Let us know what you think of these!

We wanted to let you know about a fantastic new Level 4 resource on our site:

How high can you jump?

This resource focuses on the planning part of the enquiry cycle: collecting good, reliable data from surveys.

CensusAtSchool update:

Remember to register and book a computer lab for your class to take part in May.

Can you help spread the word and let other teachers know?
We’d love to get the biggest participation ever this year!

This year we’ll be asking questions on lots of topics including getting your students to predict the final two teams and their scores for the Rugby World Cup.

CensusAtSchool is a nationwide online survey for Year 5 – 13 students which provides real, relevant data and classroom activities to enhance statistical enquiry across the curriculum.

We’ll keep you updated via email newsletters in the lead up to CensusAtSchool in May.

From mid-August to the end of September 25,048 students from 505 schools – almost one in five schools in New Zealand – took part in the survey. Here are some summary tables…

Over 1,000 students took part in the first day of CensusAtSchool today!

A quick peek at some of the results so far show that 52% of students taking part have a Bebo page and 41% have a TV in their bedroom.

The Top 3 favourite websites so far are:
Boys: Bebo, YouTube and Miniclip
Girls: Bebo, Google and Stardoll

The average length of hair so far is approximately:
30cm for girls
7cm for boys

CensusAtSchool is running again this year, launching in Maths Week (13-17 August 2007).

Please register your classes and we’ll let you know more information closer to the time.

In the meantime, we’d love to know if you have any fun or interesting ideas for questions in this year’s survey. In particular any ideas for continuous variables would be appreciated.

Please add your ideas as soon as possible and preferably over the next week!
