Comparative Data Analysis

 Bryan's Data Analysis

The focus of his research is linguistics in the African-American community. The participant was a black male in his mid-20's from South West Atlanta who can speak both Standard English and African American Venacular English. The data was collected through an interview that was most likely recorded. Bryan used direct and indirect quotes to explain his and his participants views on his research focus.

Samantha's Data Analysis

The focus of her research is telling the story of Columbine. She questioned a younger sister of a survivor and an actual survivor who walks her through the event as she remembers. The data is collected basically through story telling from witnesses and family members of survivors. Samantha didn't really use many quotes to show her angle but the stories were quotes in themselves.
