With the Olympics due to take place near enough to Ireland in summer 2012, this phase explores opinions of what this means for us. It also explores engagement with the growing community of social networking sites and asks the most desired superpower! One of the most interesting questions in this questionnaire asks whether you’d like to be healthy, happy, rich or famous.
Looking for data from other countries to compare with? The CensusAtSchool Random Data Selector web facility gives access to all the international CensusAtSchool databases. You can take random samples of the raw data collected from CensusAtSchool in the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. You may choose to select from all data or you can choose responses from a particular region, age or gender depending on which database you choose.
The Project Maths team have a number of Teaching and Learning Plans for teachers working with Strand 1 of the syllabus, Statistics and Probability. The "supplementary materials" section there may be particularly useful for those teachers using the CensusAtSchool questionnaires to investigate data.
