Word Cloud Creation...

So far, I have created two world clouds, which was possible to create thanks to the surveys sent out and answered by my fellow classmates.  The survey consisted of answering one question, which askedWhat are the top three words used in order to discriminate an individual?” Fourteen classmates answered the question and helped me create these two word clouds, which have similar words, but some words from the first word cloud were removed. I have attached both word clouds to this blog because I was not able to copy and paste the image to later send it when the assignment is due. Therefore, a pasted both links to the blogs for the professor could be able to see both word clouds and approve the one he thinks is effective when distinguishing the words use to discriminate.

Project progress.....

So far I have worked on my survey and I have alist of people, which am planning to interview. The survey is waiting to be approved by  the professor. Another work, which is in progress is my word cloud, I got feedback from a classmate, which she gave me an idea to create a survey and ask people what are the top three words use when  people discriminate others. I have started to work on my abstract and intro. Hopefully by next week, I have interviewed at least five people and I have catch up with all the work I need to turn in from my project. .

Survey process

I have decided to create to surveys one for students, professors and work force. The student survey will be the same survey, which I created since the beginning. Nonetheless, I have created a new survey for professors and workforce employees, which I interact each day.  Also, I have created a list of people, which I will interview and survey in the following weeks. Tomorrow, I plan to prepare the e-mail that will be sending out to interviewees. Further information will be updated next week.

This week I have prepared myself to finish my interview and survey questions. I have thought very carefully in what questions am going to ask my interviewes. I have to different types of interview questions becuase I plan to interview fellow classmates who attend St. Thomas University. My other set of questions will be asked to Professors and employers, which I interact in a daily basis. My survey questions will be asked to everyone who I interview.  So far this is what I have created and done for my research project. by next week hopefully, I have interviwed some of the people, I have in mind.
