Does gender affect a person’s ability to learn a beatbox noise?
I changed the different people and gender to test.
What I’m measuring is the time it takes a person to learn a beatbox noise.
My hypothesis was that boys would learn to make a beatbox noise faster than a girl .
My results show that that the time for the boys is faster than girls. The average time needed for the girls was 43 seconds and for the boys was 18 seconds.
My hypothesis was right because the boys that I tested got faster times that the girls that I tested.
A note from Mike’s presentation: As he presented his results, the very quick manner (6 seconds) in which one of the male participants learned the beatbox sound was discussed. This student happens to be very gifted in making sounds (though not a beatboxer) and the discussion was about whether his data should be included.
