Each interviewing schedule should have the following three major parts: (1) the opening; (2) the body; (3) the closing.  \nThe opening should always make the respondent/interviewee feel welcomed and relaxed. In addition, the opening should clearly indicate the objectives of the interview and make it clear what topic areas will be addressed. The interviewer should also provide some information to motivate the respondent to answer the questions. Motivating the respondent might involve offering an incentive for participating or an explanation for how the information will be valuable to society. Finally, the opening should indicate the expected length of the interview.  \nThe body of the interview schedule always lists the topics to be covered and potential questions. The number of questions and the exact wording of the questions depends on the type of interview schedule used. The interview may be nonscheduled with only the topics and subtopics listed. . A nonscheduled interview generally leaves out potential probing questions to allow the interviewer to adapt to the interaction that unfolds. The nonscheduled interview, however, requires a highly skilled interviewer, provides no means of recording answers and presents problems in controlling the time factor. Beginning interviewers often rely on a moderately scheduled interview that contains major questions and possible probing questions under each. This schedule still allows some freedom to probe into answers and adapt to the situation. In addition this type of schedule aids in recording answers and is easier to conduct. We will be using the moderately scheduled interview format for our in-class interview.  \nThe closing should maintain the tone set throughout the interview and should be brief but not abrupt. Interviewers should summarize the main issues discussed during the interview, discuss the next course of action to be taken, and thank the respondent for his or her time.  \nThe following template is to be used as a guideline to save you some time in preparing your own interview schedule. Please write your own questions. Your opening and closing can be very similar to the ones here, however, I would like you to tailor the opening and closing to your own needs, personality, and interviewee. Please use adequate space to record responses after each question. You will record responses from your interview on you schedule during your interview. If you have any questions please call, email, or stop by my office.  \nInterview Schedule for Classmate  \nI. Opening  \nA.
