In my coursework I found out that we had several problems and some minor mistakes that we could improve when we visit Malham again and I have found out several things that we could improve and to start of is with the number plates.

When we went to Malham we tried to collect 100 car number plates to measure how many visitors are visiting Malham and we also tried to see where the visitors are coming from nearby or further away and we also made up an hypothesis to prove if its true or false and our hypothesis was “The number of tourists visiting Malham decreases with increasing distances.” To prove this we had to look for 100 number plates in Malham and we did but the problem was a 100 number plates is no where near accurate and enough reliable evidence due to millions of visitors visiting Malham every year and the number plates we recorded could have been 2nd hand cars and this can be an inaccurate result or they can also be rented cars and this could have proved our hypothesis wrong.

we also wanted to prove our hypothesis true by writing all the number plates down to see where they have came from and our hypothesis was the number of tourists visiting Malham decreases with increasing distance and it was proved wrong because no tourists came from Keighley or close by accept us and also places like Leeds and Yorkshire which is near the closest visitors we visiting Malham and the other problem was then we didn’t even know whether the cars were visitors or local and this could also be and inaccurate result.

The other problem was timing ...
