JUST LIKE THE ‘PINOY HENYO’ GAME,
ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTIONS WILL LEAD TO USEFUL DATA. THIS DATA, WHEN PROCESSED
CORRECTLY, SHOULD LEAD US TO LOGICAL
AND ACCURATE CONCLUSIONS.
ASKING QUESTIONS THAT ARE VAGUE OR TOO GENERAL MIGHT LEAD TO AMBIGUOUS
RESPONSES. THIS WILL DEFINITELY
MAKE IT HARDER TO ARRIVE AT LOGICAL
AND ACCURATE CONCLUSIONS.
RESEARCH PAPER: DEVELOPING YOUR RESEARCH
STRATEGY• CONDUCTING INTERVIEWS:
– find an expert in your chosen field/area or someone constantly immersed in it
– he/she has to be knowledgeable, reliable & available
RESEARCH PAPER: DEVELOPING YOUR RESEARCH
STRATEGY• Remember that an Interview
question must be brief, clear and focused.
• In other words, be direct to the point, do not use ambiguous (malabo) terms, and ask one question at a time.
RESEARCH PAPER: DEVELOPING YOUR RESEARCH
STRATEGY• Always take notes when
interviewing people. (DUH?!)• Do this rapidly, accurately
and unobtrusively.• You may record it on paper,
on a video tape or on a digital device.
TASK: SWDirections:• Use the worksheet on page 45 to begin
planning for an interview for your topic. Remember to ask BRIEF, CLEAR & FOCUSED questions ARRANGED IN LOGICAL ORDER.
• Think of 10-15 questions to ask in your interview.
• Format: Size 1• Submission: End of the session
ASSIGNMENT
• Re-read pp. 49-76 of the Anvil guide to Research Paper Writing (Chapter 5 – Compiling a Research Bibliography)
REMEMBER• Achieving success in an interview entails asking the right questions, asking these the right way, and at the right time. Perhaps the same can be said about practically everything else in our lives.
From Arnold Glasow
"Success is simple. Do what's right, the right way, at the right time."
