My progress
I have partisipants and already have scheduled interviews. This has been a little hard because I have no car and trying to do all of this with the little time I have. By Tuesday I will have some information, and be completly done by Thursday.
Sharing resumes
My partner's resume had a very good description of his skills and abilities. The position applying for was a probation officer. There were some good descriptions but I felt some of his experiences did not match what he was applying for. If there were more things that related to the position then he would have a better chance to get hired.
The descriptions were short and simple. Some may use their descriptions too much and the employer may get discuraged.
The only thing to improve is to make the resume more job-related.

To do with my major.
My major is under Communication. there is a huge list of things I can do with this major. I am currently majoring in Visual Communication meaning all the visuals in the paper/magazine/computer/ and even graphic novels. I am also part of the the media so this opens up more doors of opportunities.
Education Equality
On the first question, i didn't find the quote to be problematic. But if we really wanted to break it down, using the word "all" may be a problem. Because the word implies that all may want to be treated normally, but not all of them may have said it. Thus making this an assumption.
I think the tone is more concerned than angry. The author clearly shows interest in the topic and knowledge. There was the use of "I" a lot and adjectives showing concern on the topic.

Cambodia Trafficking
Damn. This was a very interesting story. Articles like these are complete eye-openers, it makes you truly appreciate what you have. After reading this article I began to think of my own life and thought of things people in the U.S. take for granted. Thus making this article more impacting. What if our government do these kinds of things behind closed doors? All he statistics the author used made this story more impacting and more disturbing. AH! when this kind of stuff happens in the U.S. it's a huge issue, but these lames are doing in under the government's knowledge! Very disgusting. The article also included some opinions, (or it sounded like opinions) and there was nothing wrong with that. Considering how insane the topic was, the touch of opinions are welcomed. These things need to be eliminated. The worst things in life should never exist, people need to have a conscious. :( its sad really.
Breaking the Code
Practice makes perfect, this is one of the main things i gathered from the activity. Reading the article to assist my research project is also another great thing about it. The paper we analyzed had some pretty good points and arguments. The paper could of used more unity and transitions. This activity also made me thing of my research project, thus avoiding some of the mistakes they made.

Finding your voice
My way of showing my voice in a paper would be by using the word "I." This could be the simplest way of doing so because it clearly states it's about me. Another way I chould show it's my voice would be by having a certain style of words I use, specialy on an argumentative essay.
A way I can discover my own voice is by writting a lot of papers. Looking for similarities and writing styles can determine this.
Expose the unexposed, expand your mind rather than repeating yourself what you already know. But some topics can be broader than you originaly thought. For example, everybody knows Clumbus discovered America
