CST 110 Introduction to Communication
STAGE 3: Interview
(100 Points)
The Stage 3 assignment for this course involves setting up and conducting an interview with an expert communicator. Your purpose is to find out what she or he thinks about Communication Excellence (i.e., a definition, examples, steps to greater excellence, etc.) in her or his area of expertise. The interview should be at least 15 minutes in length. Your findings will be submitted in Canvas in a typed 2-page minimum paper using MLA format.
The requirements are as follows:
1. Contact the person ahead of time and establish a dedicated appointment where you can ask questions related to Communication Excellence. An expert is someone who has a degree, extensive work experience, or is recognized by his or her peers as an expert in a specific field of work.
2. Create a list of questions ahead of time related to what you want to find out. Questions may be related to various parts of the communication process that apply to our class: verbal and nonverbal communication, good versus bad listening skills, method of communicating using voice (tone, volume, etc.). or questions may be related to that person’s area of expertise in terms of how communication plays a role in her or his job.
3. You may decide to conduct the interview using note-taking or some kind of recording method. If technologically-recorded, be sure to get the interviewee’s permission first. Interviews can be conducted in person or electronically through Zoom, Facetime, etc.
4. After you complete your interview, be sure to thank the person for his or her time. Then you are to type up a 2-page minimum paper of the communication summary from the interview. I do NOT want a transcript of the questions and answers. I want to see an overall summary of what you learned about communication excellence from your interview.
5. You must include a minimum of 2 direct quotes from this week’s readings that would relate to your interview analysis in the workplace. (See Module 3 or syllabus for the chapters assigned for this week). Missing quotes will receive point deductions according to the rubric for this assignment.
6. Remember, your submission should follow the MLA stylebook for format. The deadline for turning in this assignment is midnight on Sunday of Week 3. I will deduct points for not following MLA format, and for spelling and grammar errors. Be sure to proofread your submitted assignment.
