Parking Permits
In this activity from the Nuffield Foundation, which uses a scenario of parking permits at a college to introduce the topic, students learn about collecting data by stratified sampling and designing a questionnaire. A full review of relevant statistical terms is provided, together with instructions of how to select a representative sample and how to use random numbers to select a sample. There are also prompts of practical issues to consider and key factors to implement when designing a questionnaire.
