Interview
You must interview one student from your target demographic and analyze the interview.
Writeup
Your writeup must address the following points:
- What kind of interview did you use (structured, unstructured, semi-structured) and why?
- If you used structured or semi-structured include a list of questions you prepared in advance as an attachment and explain why you selected these questions.
- Who did you interview and why did you pick that person? Do not include their name. Focus on what kind of user they are and what part of your demographic do they represent.
- Basic facts about the interview, how long did the interview last, how did you record information from the interview, etc...
- How you analyzed the interview and what the outcomes were.
- One paragraph reflection on the interview you conducted. In your opinion what worked, what didn't, and how might you do it differently next time.
