Thursday- Wednesday, January 21-27 Notes on two types of interview styles

################################################################################

The following material will be the first WRITING GRADE of the 3rd quarter.

 Chris Rock    

                                       Trevor Noah   Barack Obama

Assignment: You are going to listen to two interviews conducted in two formats: Question and Answer, also known as the Q and A format. and Story format, for which you will be taking notes. You will be graded on the notetaking, as a way to demonstrate your understanding of the two techniques

This is independent work, for which you have four days of classtime. Pace yourself.  If you use your classtime productively, there should be little to nothing to do outside.

Begin by copying the graphic organizers - one for each interview- and familiaring yourself with the questions, many of which require an analysis statement on your part. As well, you have choices as to what parts of each interview you wish to use.

Both graphic organizers are due by Wednesday, January 27 at midnight. Note that I put a copy of the different types of questions at the end of the blog.
