Posted by Matthew Woolums in Articles/Videos.trackback
Excellent post on “I’d Rather Be Writing” about 10 tips for interviewing. While the focus is on podcasting, these tips can be used for any sort of classroom communication such as school news, and digital story telling.
1. Do research beforehand.
2. Ask questions based on the interviewee’s responses.
3. Find people who have something to say.
4. Pick topics you’re interested in learning about.
5. Don’t be afraid to ask tough questions.
6. Let the interviewee speak most of the time.
7. Give the interviewee 10 questions to prepare, but don’t limit yourself to those questions, nor the order.
8. Avoid commenting on their answers.
9. If interviewing in person, don’t let the interviewee hold the microphone.
10. Keep everything informal.
