The student's method for the exploration is appropriate for the posed research question, as they used a survey to inquire about paper consumption and recycling frequency among primary and secondary school students. The proposed method allows for the collection of relevant and sufficient data, as evidenced by the inclusion of details about the surveyed grades and the nature of the collected data. Additionally, the student provided sufficient detail about the method, including the survey questions, enabling replication in different contexts. However, the student should have outlined and justified the sampling approach used, as well as provided reasoning for the choice of the sampling approach. The student did include and describe risks associated with the method, such as leading questions, and demonstrated ethical considerations by ensuring anonymity and obtaining consent for participation.
