Survey
As part of the Human Practices section we wanted to understand what people from all backgrounds and ages understood about synthetic biology. Well of course, this is a synthetic biology competition. To be able to do this we used questions which will highlight what people know and what they thought as an outside prospective of our project idea.
We have attached a link of the survey itself as shownL To achieve this we have created an online survey which can be found at: Survey
Survey Results
From the responses of the survey we have converted them such that the results can be seen visually through bar graphs and pie charts, this has been shown below.
Q1. How much do you know about synthetic biology?
A. Results from the survey had shown that most of the surveyors had little or some information about synthetic biology with 7 people having never heard of it before or knowing nothing.
Q2. What would help you understand about synthetic biology?
A. From the above graph it can be seen that most surveyors found that teaching at schools would help one understand synthetic biology. To develop from what we understood from this we produced a lesson plan for Year 9/10 students, which can be found in the Education section.
