- Tape RECORD, or videotape record the interview.
- Do not be afraid to ask questions if they arise during the interview, even if you did not have them listed before the interview.
- After the interview, you will need to transcribe (copy) exactly what was said during the interview. This can be a very SLOW, and timing consuming process, but it is critical that you copy exactly what was said.
- After you have copied out the interview, replay the interview again and compare it to your notes. Make any CORRECTIONS necessary.
- Share the written copy of the interview with the participant to make sure that they agree with, and affirm the contents of the interview.
