Wk1 Project Content Proposal

I have incorporated Zoho Writer in my thesis as a mean to help new immigrants who have English as their second language. I have the notion in my mind, but it is not the same when I put it to work. There are many factors like lack of technology at home and the social challenge that verbal and written communications playing a major role for these immigrants.
I will continue to development of my content proposal and see how can I have a decent write up. The degree of stress I experience when writing English is extreme and half of the time the final product still needs more work at the end, but I do it over and over until it is complete.
I continue to make Screenflows and iMovies of how to use instructions for students and circling around how to read and use the results. Work in progress I will say.

  1. You definitely need to give yourself an A! Congratulations on the progress you have made in this program! I know for a fact that as driven and competent as I am, that I would not be able to complete this program in Spanish the way you have in English. People often forget how difficult it is to translate many things both cultural and language based, between languages. Keep going! You are going to succeed this time just as I am sure you have succeeded at a great many other things in your life. It is great that you are helping immigrants with English as their second language. This is an issue that is near and dear to my heart. Immigrants are the foundation of American culture. Helping new immigrants to be included in this culture adds to American culture in an important way. Keep up the great work!
