Project Part 3

We continue with the different phases of the Project for a Social-Cultural Center For Youth in Larache

Using the lesson from the third chapter: Analysis of the Reality the students created questionaries to gather data about the project and to have some research and real data to base their ideas upon. On a cloudy monday we gathered together by the boardwalk to talk with the public about the lack of sporting and social-cultural centers here in Larache

At the moment of encounter. Each students had to perform 10 questionaries at random with the public.

They worked together and created the questionaire by themselves

Here is the questionaire:

1. name
2. age
3. sex
4. occupation
5. education
6. education of their mother/ father
7. occupation of father/ mother
8. Are you a member of an association?
9. Yes...what association
10. No...Why Not?
11. For you, what does the phrase "Social-Cultural Center" signify?
12. What kind of activites would you like to see in a center such as this?
13. Do you believe that this center could reduce the number of problems that affect young people in Larache?
14. Suggestions?

Each student had a hour and a half to fill out the ten surveys

But for me, it just wasn´t enough, I wanted to continue doing surveys. Simply asking people questions you could see that they were inspired by the possibility of such an idea. It was amazing how the light just lit up in their eyes...and indeed I am fascinated by the power of just simply asking, Why not?

As always we did an evaluation by the river Lixus after completing the activity. Here we had an opportunity to relate our own experiences and the mistakes we made while we were performing the surveys.
