Please use the word processor and if you decide to draw illustrations you will need to scan and upload them to your file or post them with a copy of your signed Declaration.
Assessment

For this assignment you will need to know about averages, range and graphical representations. These are covered in the Data Handling and Algebra or you can also find the information in any GCSE text book
The following guidelines are associated with this assignment.
You are completing a study which includes collecting relevant information that can show a variety of different calculations. It will contain diagrams including a table and a graph and will demonstrate the use of mathematical language. You are looking at the geometric consistencies in measurements of the body.
You will need to collect data from 10 participants of the same age range i.e. if you are 26 years old, ask people of approximately your age.
Take a note of the measurements from each participant:
• (a) Measure from the tip of the index finger to where the wrist starts.
• (b) Ask the participant for their shoe size.

You will then plot these two measurements on a graph. Place (a) on the Y axis and (b) on the X axis. When you have completed this, look to see if there is any pattern on the graph which could indicate a relationship between the two measurements.
The assignment should be presented using the following structure (manageable tasks) (2.1, 3.3)):
*Title (2.1)
*Table of contents (2.1)
*Abstract (approximately 50 words)(2.1)
*Introduction (approximately 300 words)(2.1, 3.1)
*Aims (2.1, 1.1)
*Hypotheses (2.1)
*Method (approximately 250 words)(2.1, 3.5).
*Design: the research design is a correlation, as you are looking at the relationship between two existing measurements that you have no control over. Hand size and Foot size.
*Participants (2.1)
*Apparatus / materials (2.1)
*Standardised procedure(2.1, 4.1)

*Relationship to background research (2.1, 3.5, 4.1, 5.2)
*Limitations and modifications (2.1, 3.5, 4.1, 5.2)
*Implications and suggestions for further research (2.1, 3.5,4.1, 5.2)
