What if.. Evaluation.

What problem did you identify?
That events were too student orientated.

What evidence did you find to support your decisions?
We all noticed independently that this was a problem, when bought up we all agreed that it was hard to find something that everyone didn't know about, prompted by this common understanding we wanted to prove our problem was true we carries out a surveys through facebook asking people what they thought and if they had any suggestions as to 'non-student' events.
What methods did you use to gather your evidence and what forms did it take?
Both primary & secondary research were gained during this brief. Both of which can be broken down into quantitive and qualitative. The primary qualitative research showed us that most people found it hard to suggest anywhere that was slightly unknown, perhaps trying to protect their secrets.

What methods of research did you find useful and why?
The research carried out via facebook gave limited results due to a limited time we had it up there and perhaps because we were all 'freshers' we still don't know the city that well.

How did these inform your response to your problem?
The final idea came from a suggestion from a member of the public about the secret tea party.

What methods did you encounter as problematic?
Actually finding out figures as primary quantitive was a difficult task as it was quite a vague topic.

How did you overcome this?

It was important that we got an understanding from others about their views, we did this and I believe our project satisfied the needs of non students

What research could you have carried out that would have proved more useful?
It would have been useful to carry out further research by asking specifically non students, as we are students and asked people via facebook, the sample groups were limited.
