Question

Daniel does not like math classes. His high school has a local requirement that every high school student must graduate with 4 math credits. Daniel is conducting a survey of students to take to the board of education to help support his case. Daniel hands out surveys to every student at his school. The surveys ask questions that relate to the local math requirement. Attached to the survey Daniel includes a handout with information supporting his view. Is this a valid survey? Why or why not?

Answer 1

This is my opinion, but the fact that he attaches info for only one side of the problem seems unfair. maybe he could've debated with a person with opposite  views and include the debate instead of the one-sided info!

Answer 2

Answer:

This is a biased survey and is not valid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Daniel only attaches a handout that supports his views on the issue, and does not provide any insight from what other students or teachers may think. Therefore, this is rigging the survey, because the people who take it will only hear his arguments and not the other side's before completing the survey.

Hope this helps :)
