Interviews With Your Elders!
Preliminary Questions are due Thursday, 2/6. Rough Draft of
completed interview is due Thursday, 2/13.
We will be turning these interviews into essays/biographical
sketches. In your notebook!
- Interview someone who is at least 50 years older than you are.
- Ask five+ questions that require more than a sentence to
answer. Try to draw information out of that person.
- Each question should be "followed up" with another question
based on the previous answer.
- Write down answers to questions. (direct quotes, summaries,
notes on attitude, etc.)
- Note the setting of the interview. (place, time, surroundings,
what you're doing...)
- Describe the interviewee. (physical, voice, relationship to
you, attitude, background, hobbies...)
- Skype/Facetime (or similar) is OK, but note the above two
items and your time limit.
- If the person allows it, a picture or two would be great.
(Bonus.)
