Time to do the interview

OK it is time to do the interviews, remember to use correct language, be polite and respectful and most of all listen.

You have a list of questions to ask, but you might think of something else during the interview, this is OK and sometimes is the only way to really get the information that you need.

The interviews are to be recorded using the provided MP3 players. You all know how to operate them because you used them in other lessons, but if you need help just ask.

Remember because you are recording someone else you must ask for their permission.

Well good luck and don't forget to upload the interviews onto the class blog.

interview questions

Its now time for you to put your groups questions onto the blog so we can all look at them and decide, if the answers, from them will supply you with all the information required to plan the best presentation. We will go through the questions in class together.

interviewing people

Have a look at this and write a list in your blog on what you think the interviewers did right and wrong. I would like to see at least 5 right and 5 wrong.

Introduction to online learning task

Hi all
Here we go, a new way of learning, hope you all enjoy learning online. You will not only be reading and doing a set task, but will also have to develop a presentation, communicate with class members and maintain a on-line journal. Follow the link to go to the power point presentation that will give you your task and help you to start it. Also provided in the power point presentation are tips and instructions on netiquette and interview skills that are to be used as guidelines. I will be providing you with updates each lesson and expect the same from you. As you have already developed your own blogs in past lessons, you know how to access and use them, so enjoy. Your blog entries will be monitored to ensure that you have an entry at least after each lesson if not more, this is one of the ways that I will know that you have been active within your group and that you are on task.

OK, read through the power point now and post any questions, regarding the task, to this blog.
