The topic I have chosen to do my SRP on is...
'How can background noise effect the way people concentrate?'

My Experiment can be something like this...

Aim: to test the affect of background noise on human concentration.

Materials: Worksheets (probably find a words), noise such as radio and people activities.

Number of people: 4
Independent variable: Level (or loudness) of background noise
Dependent variable: Mark the person got on the test and feedback
Controlled variable: Time in minutes and seconds, of how long the person lasts without being distracted

Method:
What i am going to do: First off I am going to have four people in a room doing work, and record how long they're concentration lasts for before they get distracted. The background noise will be very loud. Second i will repeat this but in a room with medium level background noise. Third, i will do this with low level background noise and fourth I will repeat this with Silence and no background noise. 
I will record, in each circumstance, how long the people i have chosen can concentrate for without being distracted.

Once completed, my experiment will include a table of results, discussion and conclusion.
Keep in mind DICE RRR
