Sample Solution

In the other study, a qualitative study would be used to try and get an understanding of the rate of deportations in regards to one demographic currently being targeted (the Dominicans and Jamaicans) by discriminatory deportation practises in comparison to the white community of similar circumstances. This would aid in understanding underlying reasons, particular mandates or motivations for why they are being deported as well as try to develop a hypothesis as to why and how this process able to continue. In this study, non-random sampling would be necessary, but mainly of people around the same age who are immigrants, facing deportation, who have minor or major felony charges, who are either black Caribbean, and white European. Essentially the researcher would be looking to gain rapport with the participants through accessing some sort of “Gatekeeper”. The aim here in this type of ethnographic study is to be able to gain access to be close and personal enough with the participants to have them be intimate with their thoughts and feel comfortable enough to share their feelings and experiences with the researcher.

The sample for the first study will be selected by the schools in the area, particularly inner-city schools, as they have a wide array of race demographics who come from similar economic situations. Students will have the no idea that they will be observed over the course of the school year, so there will be no ethical concerns, as we will not be collecting personal data. Only data pertaining to their age, race, gender and academic progress will be collected.

For the second study, consent to publish as well as email and phone number information will we obtained as to keep track of the study participants. The study will be ongoing for as long as we have access to them. Once participants respond and confirm their consent to take part in the study, the researcher will begin to maintain regular correspondence between the themselves and participants. The ethnographic process involves some degree of face-to-face interaction. As such, ethical concerns regarding safety and researchers getting too close to the participants may occur considering that these partici
