Blog 14 : Third Interview Preparation





  1. Who do you plan to interview?  What is this person's area of expertise?
    • I plan to interview my mentor, Jenna Baumann. She has been teaching special education for plenty of years and has been rewarded a higher position in the school, vice principal, because of all the great work she has done for the school and students. 
  2. Verify that you have called your interviewee to schedule an interview.  What is the date and time of the interview? 
    • Friday, February 12, 2016 at 1:30 PM. 
  3. Phrase an open-ended question that will help you find research resources that would help to answer the EQ.
    • What is the technique that really captures the students attention and help them learn?
  4. Phrase an open-ended question that will help you think about other useful activities you might do to help you answer the EQ (IC2, possible experts to talk to, etc).
    • Who / What do you believe helped you learn the most about teaching special education?
  5. Phrase two open-ended questions that help you to understand your interviewee's perspective on an aspect of your EQ. 
    • What helps with the students focus on their work and keep them from keeping distracted?
    • Do you believe that my EQ is a open ended question? Do you believe that I can get more than one answer for this question?
      • Since my mentor is easy to talk to, it is quite easy to keep the conversation going. I'm also very close with her to the point where I feel comfortable to be straight up with her and ask what she thinks of my EQ. 


Note for me 
(The interview transcript  is due to turnitin.com with the 5-minute audio excerpt and entry to the blog on Friday, February 19th. In addition, you need to turn in the verification sheet to your house teacher)
