data collected from my research

1. Data collection
I have created a music magazine survey with five key questions
based on the content and visuals of a music magazine; that will aid
me during the creation of my own music magazine. I have
collected both quantitative and qualitative data from my survey of
15 sixth form students.

online”

“Most magazines have
become digitalised”
“I see it as a waste of money
as there aren’t many good
ones”
“I don’t have enough time to
buy magazines anymore so I
can’t go through them and
read them “

online or hear news from my

I don’t shop in places that sell
them.
