What surprised you most about this information?
What surprised me was that when WWII was going on, many people left America, even when there was no war in our country. What seemed quite obvious about explaining this data set?
Something that was very obvious about this information was that many immigrants came to America in the 1800's because of all of the job opportunities. Looking at the overall trend and incorporating what you know about the US presently, predict and defend the immigration trend for the next two decades.
I feel as though many people will immigrate to America because of the technology enhancements, but it could also go the opposite way due to the lack of jobs, and our economic slump.
Describe how you made a decision on how to visually represent the information.
We chose to use flyers because we thought it would give America a way to almost tell people when they are welcome and when they aren't. This is caused by different reasons, but for the most part America as a country has the last word. What parts of group work were challenging?
One hard part was group collaboration because we had a few days in class to work on this and for one of those days it was me by myself because my partners were absent. What would you do differently if you had this project to do over?
If I could do this over, I would take the time to really look at every decade and every nationality that came to and from America.
