Research paper essayWrite an essay in which you explore the ideas raised in Bharati Mukherjee’s essay about her and her sister’s experiences as immigrants from India to America.SOURCES FOR THIS PAPER:“Two Ways to Belong to America” by Bharati Mukherjee on pp. 547-549 in Abcarian.“Latin Women Pray” by Judith Ortiz Cofer on pp. 512-513 in Abcarian.“How I Got That Name: An Essay on Assimilation” by Marilyn Chin on pp. 514-517 in Abcarian.The question for this essay is: Do the two poems corroborate or challenge Mukherjee’s “two ways” of belonging to America, as represented by her sister and herself? In this essay look for similarities and/or differences in the way the three authors describe the experiences of immigrants adjusting to a different culture from their culture of origin. Do the poems suggest other issues faced by immigrants? Do immigrants from different countries have different experiences in America? Do the poems suggest that there are more than “two ways” to belong – or not belong – to America?How do YOU and your experience fit in this essay? Consider beginning your essay with a personal perspective on the question under consideration.Reading and understanding the poems: Refer to The Evidence of Poetry power point in the POWER POINTS folder on Blackboard. When you read a poem, remember that poets use a special kind of language that appeals to our minds on a “subliminal” level. Read the poems very carefully and more than one time, looking up words you do not know in the dictionary. Look for hidden meanings and meaningful connections.Research Log 1: Complete the Double Entry journal for the essay and two poems before you begin to write. In the double entry journal, look for key words (example: mongrelization) and passages that you may use in your essay to help you discuss these sources. Begin by taking notes on Mukherjee’s essay, because your essay is a response to her ideas.Turn in Research Log 1 with your final draft of Paper One. In addition, turn in:• Working thesis statement and an informal outline for the body paragraphs• At least one rough draft• An MLA “Works Cited” page, formatted according to pp. 248-274 in Ballenger***• The final draft, formatted according to the guidelines on pp. 244-248 in Ballenger***For Paper One I will post an MLA Works Cited page in the PAPER ONE folder on Blackboard.

For this, My nationality I am immigrants coming from Arabic country and current location is the USAI didn\’t have any experience things such as those found in any of the works.My identity with being Arabic is still same even I am in USA.

Consider how a variable is valid and reliable as well as the type of validity and reliability used.Textbook:Gravetter, F. J., & Forzano, L. Research methods for the behavioral sciences Belmont, CA WadsworthWarm-Up Activity 2.2: Preparing a ChartTo prepare a chart for use in an assignment is quite easy. A chart is essentially a table in which you have established categories for review.

Then, answer the following questions:a. Identify each of the variables measured in the article.b. For each variable, identify if the variable was measured directly (like height or weight), or if the researchers used an operational definition to measure a hypothetical construct (such as motivation or quality of life).c. Determine if the article used an operational definition for a variable. If so, what was it? Did this seem appropriate?d. Determine the scale of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio).e. Identify the modality of the measurement (self-report, behavioral, physiological).f. Determine the measurement align well with the research question and hypotheses. Why or why not?For example, your chart may be set up like this:When you have completed your analysis of the provided article, reflect upon one of the topics you selected in Week 1 that you likely would pursue in your capstone.Capstone Topic: childhood obesityQuestion: What are some of the perspectives of development on childhood nutrition and obesity?
