"You are responsible for other voices as well as your own"
This is a quote from the the pages 439-449 that I read. I agree with it because when you are doing research and working with your fieldsite you need to realize that what you say is accurate since you are talking about other peoples opinions. For example, when I interviewed people from S.E if I put quotes in my paper from what they said, they needed to be 100% accurate or else that is faulty interviewing and research skills. I as a researcher am not the only person that matter when it comes to discussing my topic. I have to take into consideration everyone else that I am observing and studying. It is my observations that make up this paper and if I didn't have a fieldsite to study this whole semester of english would have been pointless. I am allowed to state my own personal opinions, but for my paper to be a well crafted and written field study i should be able to interpret what people are doing and thinking in reference to my topic, that is a good skill as a writer.
