Data collection
==== Data collection ====
For collecting data, for both tests we ran into difficulty due to the sample size. For our second test, we were setup near the entrance to the library and computing commons we were frequently turned down for volunteers to participate in either of our studies. That being said we managed to get a larger sample for our smaller test due to it’s small temporal footprint. The longer test got mixed answers ranging from ignoring our offer to promising to come back. We also had the difficulty that since we had a Student Federation banner (this because we needed permission, which we obtained from Student Federation, to perform our survey in the halls of Seneca College), students thought we were representing Student Federation and would ask us about bus schedules or information regarding services offered at the college.

 For our first test the process of collecting data was [insert first test results]done by asking a few students in the Open Lab to fill in our survey. As stated before, we simply just had the people answer the questions in the survey. Most of the questions were of the genre of circle which ones apply to you or circle one and explain why/why not.
