Once the students had a basic understanding of the various Millennium Goals, they conducted an email survey involving the greater public to help determine which of the Development Goals was of the greatest importance to Calgarians. The students demonstrated excitement and a high level of interest in the survey portion of the project. They understood that opinions and ideas were going to be gathered from individuals outside of the school building; this authentic Math activity gave a real purpose for collecting and organizing the data. The students were very focused when reviewing the emails containing survey responses and they were extremely engaged in synthesizing the data collected. Information gathered was later graphed (see figure 2) and analyzed by the students to determine an area of focus. Down the road, further research will be conducted and the information gleaned will be communicated with others through the creation of various projects such as: digital stories, podcasts, and/or Voice Threads. media type="file" key="Project Background audio.mp3" width="240" height="20" align="center"
