伝達(でんたつ)6 [T6]: SURVEY! サヴェイ!

伝達始 [transmission start]


And so...the survey project is done. The presentations have all said something about a unique featurette of Japanese culture. We all tried, with an online survey, to obtain a picture of how the modern Japanese live out certain things.


With Joeie-san, our survey covered (or at least attempted to study) the preferences of music among the Japanese these days. It was most fascinating, how a majority of Joeie's expectations on preferences on pop-music collapsed with the results of the survey being quite different. Ayumi Hamasaki is not THE big artist-icon as she'd thought her to be - and Classical music still owned most of the hearts of the Japanese when it came to music!


Like most of our class, our survey was also conducted online. Unlike most of our class, 19 people responded. Overall, no study group obtained 20 or more participants, hence, we had the most respondents. Clearly still however, 19 respondents does not make for a good statistical sample to represent a consensus. That was somehow, an achievement for us.


For a detailed elaboration on another thing that I found interesting that was found out in the survey projects, please check the previous transmission.


As for now, the next transmission will contain a few final things. it would (probably) be the last transmission from this blog, Operation 53. Look forward to it, and as for our comrades and everyone else, 今週、いしょにがんばろう!

  3. Yuri san, I think your group's presentation was very interesting.

    It makes me to realize that Ayumi is not as popular as before which it's really surprise me.

    good luck for your 口頭試験 next week. See you~
