 The most important issue in my research is how immigration and border control affect immigrant families in the United States. Strict immigration policies can cause fear and stress for many people. My research showed that students and families sometimes worry about deportation and safety. This is important because these Summary: I found best sources with my group Reflection:I found out how to solve issues with my group.

 Our group had trouble choosing sources because we had different opinions on which ones were best. We talked together and explained why we liked certain sources. When we disagreed, we voted and chose the sources most people supported. We also checked if the sources were reliable and related to our topic. By communicating and listening to each other, we were able to finish the assignment successfully. Summary: finished finding quotes from the passages Reflection:I Learned how to work as a team

 Completing the annotated bibliography helped me better understand my research topic by forcing me to look closely at each source. I can now see more clearly what information is most important and relevant. My sources connect by supporting similar ideas and sometimes offering different viewpoints on the same issue. These connections are helping me see patterns and gaps in the research. Moving forward, I am using these sources to shape a clearer and more focused argument.

 The evaluation part of the annotated bibliography was the most challenging for me because it required me to judge how reliable and useful each source was. It was harder than just summarizing since I had to think about the author’s credibility, bias, and the quality of the information. This challenge helped me grow as a researcher by making me more careful and thoughtful about the sources I choose. I learned how to look deeper into a source instead of just accepting it at face value. This will help me when writing my research paper because I will be able to use stronger, more trustworthy evidence. Summary:We cited sources and summarized them Reflection:Learned how to find sources and filter out sources.

 As I gathered sources, I noticed that different authors had different opinions and perspectives on the same topic. Some sources focused on the benefits, while others highlighted the problems or risks. These differences showed me that the issue is not simple and can be understood in many ways. By comparing them, I was able to see both sides and think more critically about the topic. This helped me better understand the complexity of the issue and form a more balanced opinion.

 Using GALILEO felt more organized than how I usually search on the open internet. Instead of just typing a question into Google, I had to use specific keywords and filters to find better results. This made the sources more reliable, like academic articles instead of random websites. Evaluating the sources also helped me choose information that was trustworthy and relevant. Overall, using these strategies improved the quality and accuracy of what I found. Summary:Put my sources in a doc and drive Reflection:I learned how to use GALILEO

 The cartoon criticizes Donald Trump for distracting people with foreign conflicts. He points to Iran attacking Israel to pull attention away from problems at home. The giant elephant labeled “Big Beautiful Bill” represents a major domestic policy issue causing harm. The injured Uncle Sam shows that the American public is being hurt or ignored.  The officer from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement suggests controversial immigration enforcement policies. The cartoonist wants the audience to question whether leaders use international crises to distract from domestic problems. Summary:We did a writable togather Reflection:Learned how to use writable.

 In the past, I usually searched for information by just typing a general topic into Google. Today I learned that creating specific search phrases helps narrow down results and find more accurate information. Instead of searching one word, using keywords and clear questions brings up better sources. This strategy helps avoid unreliable websites and saves time. It also makes it easier to find information that directly answers the research question. Using specific search phrases will improve the quality and accuracy of my research.

 Immigration policies in the United States are hard to solve because many people have different opinions. Some people think laws should be stricter to protect jobs and security. Others believe immigrants help the economy and should have more opportunities. Economic needs and human rights both affect immigration decisions. These different perspectives make it hard to create one solution. Understanding multiple viewpoints helps leaders make fair and balanced policies. Summary:Worked on project Reflection:Learned how to talk togather and share ideas.

 In the past, I have faced challenges with research when working independently because it was sometimes hard to stay organized and manage my time. When working in a group, communication and dividing the work fairly could also be difficult. I handled these challenges by making a plan, setting deadlines, and checking in with teammates. These experiences taught me the importance of staying organized and starting research early. For this project, I will focus on planning my work and communicating clearly if I work with others. I will also make sure to use reliable sources and stay on schedule. Summary: put in groups for reseach project Reflection:learned how to work as a group

  My perfect spring break would be a trip to Europe to watch soccer games.  I would travel to different countries like England, Spain, and Italy.  I would bring my close friends and family who also love soccer.  We would visit famous stadiums and watch live matches every day.  I would also explore cities, try new foods, and meet soccer fans from around the world.  It would be an unforgettable trip filled with excitement, travel, and amazing soccer moments.

  Chris McCandless wanted complete independence and believed he could survive alone in the wilderness.  He rejected help, limited supplies, and trusted only himself, which made survival much harder.  His lack of preparation and knowledge about nature contributed to his death.  His story shows that independence without support or planning can be dangerous.  In my life, I once wanted full control over a project and decided to do everything myself.  It did not go as planned because I became overwhelmed and learned that asking for help can lead to better results. Summary:finished the movie and the book  Reflection:learned what happended to Christopher McCandless

  Watching the film version of Into the Wild helped me understand Chris McCandless better. The movie shows his emotions and struggles more clearly than the book. Seeing the harsh wilderness made his journey feel more real. The book explains his thoughts, but the film shows how lonely he really was. One time visuals changed my understanding was when I watched a documentary after reading about an event. Seeing real images helped me understand the situation more deeply.
