Anything based on BCF surveys will feature your mum. A lot.

You lot of missable gits! , give the op a chance, 9k a year! You'd expect some basic research skills before going live with a public survey. Thing is op you need to refine your English, would you / do you..

Your research should provide data that you can turn into information, for this style of survey simple closed questions would provide better data, then from that formulate your open questions.

Eg. Do you ride in the rain yes / no add total response, average and turn in to a percentage of your sample size. Then you could ask: if you ride in the rain what do feel is the most dangerous aspect of wet weather riding? Open answer

Also if you want valuable opinions you need to describe your proposed solution to the most commonly perceived aspect.

Then you can state something along the lines of; from a sample size of 120, 47% of respondents ride in the rain, of these the most commonly perceived danger is reduced peripheral vision reduction (cite responses to back up point) to combat this I propose a product that reduces the commonly perceived risks associated with reduced peripheral vision experienced by motorcycle riders when riding in wet weather. Current market solutions include the pin lock system that offers anti fogging and misting protection of x % of the visors area.

Research market sales of the pin lock visitor system..

Then, market demand for current solution (2012 to 2015) shows that x percentage of riders are willing to purchase this solution, additional reasons for purchasing the pin lock system could be... However when demand is compared to average rainfall (cite source) an increase in market demand can be seen (cite market data) this evidence shows that consumers are willing to enter the market to combat the commonly perceived risk of visor fogging, other solutions include opening the visor to clear the fog. Highway statistics (citation ) shows that actual reduction in bike control while riding one handed is... (Cite)

Or sumfin like that init.. What do you want from your research, retrospective validation of past research or primary data to process into information?

Take no notice of the cynics, if you where already an innovative product designer then I'd expect quality research skills, but you are not, you are learning to be one, go hassle your tutor and find a extra primary data research module at your university, if they don't have one take your NUS rep to the information / knowledge / libraries facility ( usually the place they do IT courses and ask for one to be offered.

If that don't work find a bookish business or IT student of the opposite sexual preference and take them for a ride out and ask them to check out your monkey for you

Although you really should have paid attention in your year 9 ict class at school instead of playing "happy wheels.."

Good luck

Done, enjoy your sparkly piece of paper at the end of it.

To everyone giving grief, he probably doesn't even want to do it himself. We all know uni is just a licence to print money, in essence just a load of shit for a piece of paper. This is literally just a ticking box exercise.

One day someone might even invent something half useful, so no fucks given!

Surveys are used to provide statistics. Statistics are usually taken from a sample of population which is then used to represent an entire population. Any information taken from these statistics is used by governments as an excuse for them to be a pain in the fuckin arsehole.

I despair of undergraduates these days. When I was at Uni and had to do any market research I simply made it up - much less hassle.

Crap survey is crap.

I use my scooter mainly for trackdays, but my rain suit only works when I do my rain dance.
