1. Media Studies Questionnaire
As part of my A2 Media Studies project, I am required to collect information from
as many individuals as possible. I would be really grateful if you could carry the
questionnaire in as much detail as possible. I would ask if you could share the
questionnaire in order for me to collect a larger data sample, and as a result I
would have more representative data.
