Response #3
This week we covered different types of interviews and what they entail. For our assignment, I was kind of confused to what the interview guide was composed of. It made much more sense after we covered it in class. The interview guides are a way of organizing topics and subtopics to be covered in the interview. We also discussed the different ways interviews are schedules whether it be non-, moderately-, highly-, or highly and standardized-scheduled interviews. This week I have an interview set up for another class. I will be using moderately scheduled interviewing. I have all the major questions I want to ask written down but also have some possible probing questions available to further discussion if needed. This is the best way for me because I want the interview to last about 30 minutes. By having major questions ready along with possible probing questions, I should be able to control the length and quality of the interview.
