In Module Five, you learned about interviewing purposes, context, techniques, and strategies. In your Module Six Practice Activity, you looked at different types of interview questions and how they are written with the goal of getting specific information. In this assignment, you will draft your own interview questions for a specific purpose. This will help you complete your interview strategy for Project Three, due in Module Eight, where you will apply what you have learned in order to develop interview questions to get specific information from an interviewee.
