Online Example
I carried out my
online research by
emailing family and
friends as that
would give be a
variety of answers
from different ages
and genders.
Paper based example
I carried out paper based
research by printing off my
questionnaire and handing it
out to others. I gave my
questionnaire to both sexes
so I would get a variety of
results.
Online feedback
This example is of
someone from the age
range of 1020, therefore, differentiat
ing to the results that I
gained from the example
of the paper based
questionnaire.
Paper based feedback
This example of my paper
based feedback was gained
from someone of the age
range ‘older’, meaning that
they where older then
50, which would immediately
make me think that they
knew what the term social
realism meant, however, that
was not the case.
How my research helps me answer

suitor my target demographic.
