So, of course there is no class next Monday, so the HW below is due on Wednesday Sept. 4.

Reading: Please read up thru Book II in Bread Givers. (thru ch. 16)

Interviewing: You should bring to class your typed up interviews that you did with 3 immigrants.
To prepare for the interviews you should go to this link and read through the advice about how to do interviews and how to prepare for interviews.       Tips for interviewing!

As we discussed in class, below is an approach for developing good interview questions:
You need to come up with concepts that you can explore in the interviews, but where will you get your concepts from? Well, one trick is to start with what you know. There are several places from which you can come up with concepts:

• Bread Givers has lots of concepts that can be inferred from the episodes in the story
• Check your class notes
• Consider your own experiences
• Look to other classes you may have had that explore these issues
• Do some research on Internet

Once you have some promising concepts, you should do a Rule of 3 on them to make sure they are not too big or general. Once you have developed these "right-sized" concepts, you are ready to start turning them into interview questions. Remember to avoid "Yes/No" style questions. Good luck with the interviews, and do not forget to check out this link!  Tips for interviewing!
