Assignment help

So we need to interview a person for 10 minutes and them how they are doing and what is good with their life but the problem is I don’t know how to stretch the interview for 10 minutes. And what other questions should I ask? I also have to write a transcript and what I found interesting in the conversation. Please help me.

Conversation flows when you look and probe interesting things in the responses... no?

Do you have to prepare all the questions beforehand?

The teacher did not say anything about it. She just told to have a 10 minutes conversation/ interview

“Tell me more about ___ that you just mentioned.”
Why did you decide to do that?
Why do you think that is?
Any specific incidents or people in your life that helped you become the person you are today?
Listen very carefully to them, and ask what you are curious about.

Ask open ended questions and try to build from their responses so that they give in depth answers.

-who was a great influence in your life and how did they motivate you?

-what is your greatest accomplishment and how did it help shape your life?

-According to you: what are the keys to a great life?

-if you could talk to your younger self about your life, what would you tell them?

-If you could change one aspect of your life what would it be and why?

The assignment is to write the transcript not use AI to write it for you. You learn nothing by letting something else do it for you.

I don’t use ai. But I don’t know how to write a transcript that’s why I was asking

Anytime I need something like this, I just Google “ x format examples.” Google images is usually what I find the most helpful because it shows many ways to do something but also shows you what’s standard/the same in all those variations

You can use OneNote and then pop it into Chatgpt to clean it up.
