We are currently doing alright with the fieldwork project.
We have gotten about 92 responses to our survey. We put the survey on as many
Facebook groups we could. We would like to get more results, but we should be
able to see if there is a cause and effect relationship between exercise and
GPA. We shared the results we had in our last project update. We have only had
a little time to analyze our results and we have not had a change to fully
discus what we each think the mean. It seems that everyone seems to exercise
some, and have a decent to excellent GPA. We are currently having the
discussion whether the exercise effects peoples GPA, or if people are smart,
get good GPA’s, and exercise to keep their bodies healthy. It could really be
either one. It is really important to know the difference. Once we determine
which one it is we will be able to continue the project and share the results
as we see fit.
We are also planning to reach out to someone who works at
the gym to see what they think about the importance of exercise in student’s
grades. We will try to get a manager or someone who has been working there for
a couple of years. We hope they will be able to tell us about their experiences
while working at Virginia Tech. They may be able to help determine if our
results are accurate with what we have found. We may also talk to the students
that work as general employees at the gym to see if they have seen that working
at the gym has specifically helped their grades. These are just ideas that need
to be discussed more as a group before they are acted upon.
