This is a question School Projects

MostlySunny wibbles, "When I was 11 I got an A for my study of shark nets - mostly because I handed it in cut out in the shape of a shark."

Do people do projects that don't involve google-cut-paste any more? What fine tat have you glued together for teacher?

Back when I was 20,
I went back to 6th form to get my GCSE maths and do a GNVQ in IT as I was sick of fucking around working in pubs.
One of the maths assignments we had to do was to do a survey and break it down statistically.
Naturally, all of the chavvy 16/17 years olds that I had to put up with decided to do surveys on things like "cars, and break them down by color, make/model etc".

Fuck this, said WBM, and proceeded to produce a survey on drugs. The usual questions - have you done drugs, what have you taken etc etc. Did the movie "Trainspotting" affect your thinking about drugs in any way - that kind of thing.
This survey was completely anonymous and handed out to the tutors as well.
A week later, I had collected back the surveys - our tutor had thoughtfully put a tray out so people could sneak in, put them in the tray and be assured of their anonymity.

I got an A for that particular project. I also learned which tutors I could score weed off, and they'd come to me if they were out.
Fun times!
