Interviews as research method

Sharing this TEDtalk by Dave Isay as many of you (module three) are approaching interviewing  as part of your research methods or thinking about using interviews as a method (module two).

Remember on this programme of study we are all engaging in QUALITATIVE RESEARCH, inviting participants to share their experiences with you on a given subject area (the area of your research) so that you hear a different perspective, learn from the experience of others, consider new opinions in relation to you own and those of the scholars you are engaging with. Interviews in qualitative research are not a place to ask direct questions in order to get answers. 

Interviews are invitations for sharing stories...
