3. I found that writing up and handing out a questionnaire to collect information
was very useful because once the questionnaire was created it was a very
quick and efficient way of collecting information. I found that i could collect
large numbers of data quickly and clearly which made the information very
easy to present. I also found that the data was simple to read because most
of the answers throughout y questionnaire were multiple choice which made
it easier for people to chose an answer.
Although i found the questionnaires to be a very useful and clear way of
collecting data i found that people struggled to put across there individual
opinions because there were not enough questions where people could write
out their own answer they had to choose from answers that i had given. I also
found that one specific question was difficult to use in my research as people
were writing answers not relevant to my genre of music. The question I asked
was what artists or bands do you listen to? and people wrote down answers
like Ed Sheeran, Paramore and Example, all of which are not reggae artist's.

4. I also had a few problems with hardware. When i first created
my questionnaire on a macbook i saved the document to my AS media folder
and when i next tried to open it, Only half of the file had saved therefore I had
to re-create the second half of my questionnaire and saved the file again. After
saving my file for the second time i tried opening the file on a windows
computer and the font styles were different and all of the auto shaped i had
inserted had disappeared from my questionnaire, I made the final changes to
my questionnaire and printed out 14 copies to give out to people however
when I printed them the colours didn't print the way they looked on the
computer and all the red colours came out as bright pink and all the blue
colours printed out as greens and grey. For this reason if I were to create
another questionnaire I would print off one copy first to make sure that
everything printed correctly before printing loads of copies.
Personally i think that using a questionnaire to collect information is the best way
of data collection because questionnaires are quick and easy to make and they
are easy to fill in and hand out to people. All my results were from people
within my target audience meaning that i knew exactly what my potential
customers would want from a reggae magazine.
