1. What kinds of sources did you use to help you answer the secondary data questions? Did the sources give you the direct answers to the questions?

2. To find the answers to the primary data questions, how did you collect the data? Could it have been collected in a different way? 

3. Of the primary data questions, which ones could be answered by a survey / observation / experimentation?
