We didn’t really do much today to be honest. We looked at two, less than flattering, accounts of Ilkeston, one from a well-known site about ch*vs, which is foul, and another from a book called ‘Cr*p Towns’, Ilkeston’s entry can be found here.
We did a bit of a discussion about whether there were any points in the accounts that were true, what we found offensive, and considered the issue of bias. We then completed a survey as a class, this has two purposes, the first is to model the format of a good questionnaire. The second is to model how easy and effective Excel is when graphing your results. You’ll find more about this tomorrow.
We’ll also move on to look at some local issues concerning ‘Illson’ folk and where your ‘local’ area actually is…
What a surprise, homework not completed on the first asking, tomorrow, or a future of global warming will feel a pleasant distraction. 
Just be glad I was distracted with Year 11 coursework!
