Objectives Revised

1. I want to gather all the necessary information about the interviewee's culture.
2. Have well thought out questions, and have the questions well rehearsed.
3. Set up an interview, when setting up the interview, I want to make sure that I am accomodating the interviewee's needs: work around the interviewee's schedule, make sure to have a comfortable place to interview (something warm and inviting).
4. During my interview, making sure I am well prepared, I look professional, I am calm, make sure that I am paying attention, I have eye contact, and I want to be opened minded about the interviewees answers and to what they have for me to learn.
5. After the interview, I am going to make sure that I thank my interviewee for taking time out of their day to let me learn and hear about their culture.
6. Once I have gathered all the information from my interview, I am going to prepare a paper.
7. I will transcribe at least one of interviews on paper.
8. Finally I will hand in my paper for a grade.

  1. You will conduct three interviews, transcribe and report on two of them. Your Nr. 7 is not right. Please look at Nathan's objectives for a clear list, Maria's for thoughtful language, and Mohammed's and Maddy's for post-production. Vishal's blog also warrants reading.
    cheers
