When interviewing, the person must speak in a respectable and show a way that the other person can understand.

During my research some things I found surprising was that many immigrants are willing to sacrifice their time and work for the sake of making a living. This is important for contributing to our economy due to the fact that no one wants to them. Immigrants take on laborious roles in agriculture, construction and etc. They also affect the professional workforce in contributing Silicon Valley and the technological field. The process allowed me to appreciate immigrants and their work.

PW; What do you think when you hear "proofreading"? What do you proofread. When I proofread, I check my mistakes and mark out the possible things that I can add to or improve upon. I read aloud to make sure my sentences make sense and clear. I also check through the whole thing a bunch of times.

Dear (       ), My name is Francis Diza and I am currently working on research about Immigration and their effect in society. In your field of immigration, I believe that you can give an insight on my project. I would love to ask some questions whether it be in person, video (skype), or by email.

Usually when I interview someone, I try to get to know them first before asking about the serious and personal questions. A casual conversation to start off before going to the serious topics.

Summary/Main points Interviews are not meant to be serious and are like a friendly conversation Researching about people means stepping into their views  Listen and record stories from a point of view of others. Interview also involves closed questions which are questions that we answer on application forms or in magazines. Open questions draw out people's perspective and a more conversational exchange. No single answer.  Quotes "Even in an informal conversation, we conduct a kind of ethnographic interview." (219) - Ethnographic interview, we can know more about the interviewee.  "Interviewing involves an ironic contradiction: you must be both structured and flexible at the same time" - It is important to be structured and flexible in order to bring out better and more flexibility. "To avoid asking too many closed questions, you'll need to prepare ahead of time by doing informal research about your informants and the topics they repre...

Take a moment to remember MLK's impact on you. Thinking of your own issue, what would "Leadership" look like in that context? MLK spoke in a confident yet eloquent way towards the audience. His speech was very powerful and conveyed the message across the nation. He advocated for civil rights in front of the capital. MLK has to do with my topic because civil rights has to do with immigration.

SUMMARY Chapter 4: Chapter is more about the I say rather than the They say. We use our thoughts to convey the message as the author. There are three ways to respond as the writer which the three were disagree, agree and disagree and agree simultaneously. Arguments can be used from your point of view or experience and not all about facts. Don't be overly complex to the reader.  QUOTES "But do be aware that whenever you agree with someone else's view, you are likely disagreeing with someone else's." (63) The quote basically means there will always be a counter argument to every argument. "Do be aware that when you represent objections successfully, you still need to be able to answer those objections persuasively." (87) Same as quote one, use your arguments to persuade the reader. "Like disagreeing, agreeing is less simple than it may appear." (61) The writer must find numerous ways to back up their evidence. Question How do...

Research check in: How did your research, reading and article annotation go? What are your next steps if you did not final 3-5 good sources? As for my research, I found 2 good sources on Google Scholar that talked about how Immigrants benefit America and another one on the origin of immigrants - the who and whats. I learned about the professionalism in the fields that vital for America's growth. Some of the research was hard to find since some of the articles doesn't talk about immigrants in general but rather in a split up way such as "Chinese immigrants or Irish immigrants". The next few steps is looking for a different keywords that led me towards better articles.
