Reflection  

Having read the material entitled " Creating a survey: Sell an ad for school publications ". I now realize that a survey is a research method used for collecting data from a predefined group of respondents to gain information and insights into various topics of interest. Most importantly, I have learned that the data is usually obtained through the use of standardized procedures to ensure that each respondent can answer the questions at a level playing field to avoid biased opinions that could influence the outcome of the research or study.  I have significantly developed my skills in creating a survey subject. However, I have not improved my ability to make a good survey especially in creating a survey sell an ad for school publications. This means that I have to continue to practice and learn a lot about how to make good a survey. This skill will be essential to me as a learner because it is very useful for me to practice my writing skills. Because I did not too proficient with make a survey and how to make correct a survey I will now need to hone my writing skills. As a next step, I need to learn more about good writing techniques in making a survey from various sources.
