Step 3 - Treatment of information collected
(500 words*)

Treatment of information collected...


6 marks available - a lot of these marks are for actions and not words!

Suggested word count of 500 out of the 2500 words. *However, you may not use many words in this section and so can carry them over to Step 4.


Deadline First Draft: Friday 30 September (**For Step 3 & 4**). 


The presentation of your data (graphs etc) and the written analysis must be integrated - no random graphs on a single page.

You should treat and display the data collected using the most appropriate techniques.

The "most appropriate techniques" are:

- the most effective
- well used
- good quality presentation

The presentation of results could involve techniques such as:

- Scatter graphs to show how tourism scores changes with the distance from the resort centre

- Comparative annotated diagrams/photographs of each zone 

- Located charts using individual zone maps as the base for the charts

- Basic bar charts to show positive / negative values in bipolar survey (see to the right) 

- Radar charts to show perceptions etc. 

- Tables to show statistical analysis. 


Some important points to remember. 


* Ensure you have looked at the differing scales on the the surveys
​

* Don't show different scaled survey totals on the same chart - perhaps show comparisons between the two towns instead. 


​
You should consider including a statistical test that includes confidence limits. A member of the Maths department or a willing IB DP Maths students will lead a session explaining this. A suggested use of a statistical test would be to quantify the strength of relationship between the price of Coca Cola and the relative wealth of that settlement.

Reminder of the zones...

Zone 1 - Main Shopping Street

​Zone 2 - Historic Buildings 

​Zone 3 - Promenade & Beach 

Zone 4 - Historic Core 

Zone 5 - Entertainment District


If you require any comparisons to see how zones in each of the resorts has changed since 2013, click here to access some old fieldwork videos filmed by Mr Podbury and a group of G11 students

Make sure you have done the following...

- Use the most appropriate methods - just using Excel or Google Sheets to produce graphs may not be the most appropriate method!

- Include a statistical test.

- All the axis are correctly and clearly labeled.

What the examiner is going to use... ​
