In chapter 3 Graff is the Colonel of the International Fleet(I.F) who wants to continue his research on Ender. He was surprised by how Ender defended himself from the bully Stilson, and when Ender the reason why it sounded intelligent to him. This made Graff want Ender more in his school. He looked everywhere for someone like Ender someone that was both evil like Peter and so nice like Valentine. He wanted Ender to have both personalities because he wanted his experience to work and because Ender was more like Valentine Graff wanted to make him more evil. He had to convince Ender to attend the school not because he was the only one that was able to help with the experiment but because if he Ender went not willingly the experiment wouldn't work. He convinced him by saying that no one in his family really cared about him except his sister. So, it was best for him to go live in the I.F school, because he will be helping save the world. "If you come with me the world will be saved."(32) he wanted him to help save the mankind because it was destroyed the last time they attended to do so.
The technology that was used in the procedure to find the person that will help save the world had to be used carefully. The Scientists wanted to save the world not to destroy it and Graff was confident that Ender was the last attempt who could be used to do that. To be human you have to find an easy of getting what you want and sometimes it can become more complicated than it had to be. And also convincing some people to do what you want might not be easy. The depiction of the chapter was to show that no matter how much education you have received sometimes you need a younger person's help in their life. In my previous blog "You want power.... I got it." I spoke about the fact that with technology you can do everything that you want and can achieve anything. Just like how Graff is using technology to save the world.
