Online Interview Research: Designing, Doing, Teaching

e/merge Africa is offering a free seminar




From the Website: Online interviews can be used to collect data for qualitative studies, but their use is not limited to empirical research. E-interviews are also valuable as collaborative e-learning exercises that bring real-world expertise into the classroom and develop digital literacy.
Even though we may feel comfortable communicating online, doing interviews requires another level of thinking and planning, questioning, and listening. How do we learn such skills?
This seminar led by Dr. Janet Salmons from Capella University and Vision2Lead will focus on two related areas: designing research studies based on data collected through online interviews and teaching students how to plan and conduct interviews online. We will consider ways to use free, cheap, available communications technologies. Resources and sample exercises will be offered that you can adapt for your own classes.
In addition to an asynchronous discussion forum, Dr. Salmons will offer two online meetings which will be recorded.
Wednesday, 23 July at 3 pm (SAST/ GMT +2): Teaching with Online Interviews and
Friday, 25 July at 3 pm (SAST/ GMT +2): Designing and Conducting Online Interview Research
