My AS Media questionnaire feedback...

After receiving the results of my questionnaire, they have helped me make decisions about the front cover of my school magazine. The results showed me that the most popular choice of masthead for the magazine was ‘The Class Act’ and therefore as it is the most popular I have decided it will be my masthead for my magazine. Also having read the results of my questionnaire 60% of the sample revealed they buy a magazine on a weekly basis therefore this helped me decide on a price for the magazine. As the magazine would a weekly magazine the price could not be extortionate and also as it is a school magazine people may not be willing to pay as much as they would for a music magazine such as ‘kerrang’ or a gossip magazine of ‘Heat’. Therefore using my questionnaire I followed the popular answer of between £1-1.50 and decided on a price of £1.50. Also those who answered my questionnaire believed that the colours they associated most with our school were black, yellow and navy and therefore I am going to try and incorporate only the black and yellow into the front cover of my magazine as I believe that navy does not really work with black and yellow. Also most pupils who answered my questionnaire didn’t want the magazine to be about just one topic and therefore opted to choose a variation of subjects to be covered in the magazine such as school sporting success, school trips, gossip and teacher news. This helped me choose my main headline on the front page which I decided should be the success of the school exchange with Germany.
