Lesson 15 / 16Interviewing Together Goals: Conduct an interview Summarize, paraphrase, and quote Synthesize answers and create a report of a Q&A interview
1.14: Interviewing Together • Open books to page 56 • Focus: find out about an incident that happened while the person was in high school so you can write about it • You will start by filling in a KWL chart about the person you are interviewing
Step 2: Questions to Ask • Based on the information provided to you, and knowing what the focus of your group interview is, create a list of three open ended questions to ask.
As a Class… • Decide what the best starting question is! • Rules during Interview: • Raise hands to ask a question, and I will call on you. • If you have a follow up question, write it down during the interview and raise your hand. I will mark you down. • Take notes on a separate sheet during the interview
Step 3: Note Taking • With your partner, you’ll work together to take notes • One person is in charge of DIRECT QUOTES • Other person in charge of summarizing, INDIRECT QUOTES • Both of you in charge of marking down the questions asked, what the interviewee is doing, what he/she looks like, etc.
Step 4 • Now that the interview is over, fill in the “Learned” section of the KWL chart
Step 5 • Look back through your notes, and get out two highlighters. • In one color, highlight the questions that begin a new topic or direction in the questioning • In a second color, highlight the questions that follow up on a previous answer • Below your notes, write any follow-up questions that you might have asked, but you didn’t have a chance or just thought of them
Step 6 • Evaluate what you learned about the interviewee. Circle the number that corresponds. • 1: I learned a lot about the person • 2: I learned some things, but wanted more • 3: I did not learn very much
