For the annual day celebrations, the teacher is looking for an anchor in a class of 42 students. The teacher would make selection of an anchor on the basis of singing skill, writing skill, as well as monitoring skill.
Which mode of data collection should be used?
How would you represent the skill of students as data?
Answer
The appropriate mode of data collection for selecting an anchor based on singing skill, writing skill, and monitoring skill would be direct observation and evaluation by the teacher. This can involve conducting auditions or assessments where each student demonstrates their skills in singing, writing, and monitoring.
The skills of students can be represented as structured data in categorical form using a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest. Create a structured data format with columns for Singing Proficiency, Writing Proficiency, and Monitoring Proficiency. Each student is then categorized based on their proficiency level in these areas.
