(Question 1): This research project was done in the 1986. If you were to re-do this project today, at the end of the first decade of the 21st century, what might you as a researcher do differently? What would you do the same?
In some clips there should have been some subbtitles to understand what they were saying. Research more ancsents and languages. I would still interview the different ppl from the towns.
(Question 2): What are some of the flaws with the study? Are there any groups that are under-represented? Over-represented? How might you make the study more appealing to an audience (visually, instructionally, etc?)
The people from the south were over-represented to me. I feel that there should have been more interviews from the west and other areas.
(Question 3): In your opinion (and based on some of the things discussed in the clips), how important is language in terms of how we perceive others? What is revealed (or others think is revealed) about us when we talk?
Language is very important. People judge you based on your dialect and how you speak. If your dialect does seem as proper as yours then they tend to look down on you.
