Steve's next job is to find out some information on all the points he has jotted down.

Some of the information he needs can be:

• Measured or tested, e.g. air and noise pollution
• Gathered through observation and taking photographs, e.g. litter, graffiti and accessibility

To find out statistical information on the area, he contacts the local council, bus company and police force.

Steve then decides to find out some information for himself.

He designs a questionnaire, asking a cross-section of 50 people what they think of the quality of the college's environment.

Here it is.
