Math 151 , Spring 2006: Questions on Circle Experiment Hit reload ...
!!= we've looked at this
On Average:
What was my average speed? [compare with others?]
Class average for speed? Accuracy?
How fast was my R/L hand? What was the
difference?
How far from center was my R/L hand? What was
the difference?
Average distance between circles? [design of
experiment]
[What about spreads?]
Which hand: R/L, Dominant/Nondominant
Was faster? (by how much?)
Easier to use? [can we tell from recorded
data?]
More accurate? (by how much?)
How did being right or left-handed affect the experiment? [need
more than one person's data for this]
Colors:
!! What color occured most frequently? [design of experiment]
Did color make a difference? if so,
What color did I respond to faster/
relationship
between color and speed/accuracy?
What color was best for you? [how can we
measure this?]
Could colorblindness affect speed/accuracy?
Size:
How did size affect accuracy of hitting the center?
What size was easier to see? [how can we measure
this?]
Distance: Did the time increase (accuracy decrease) as the
distance increased?
More accurate moving up/down or side-to-side? [can we measure
this?] Did accuracy improve over Time? Does type of Mouse matter? (touchpad vs mouse? mousepad
surface?) [how could we measure this?]
Did your mouse get stuck [dirty mouseball]?
