Storycorps Practice Interviews: Let's practice empathetic listening with each other!
1. Brainstorm: What makes for a meaningful Storycorps interview? What kinds of things can we ask each other for the mock interview? Think: What story do you want to tell?
2. Use the voice memo program on your phone. If you want to download the Storycorps App and play with it, that is fine, but we won't be using that for your project.
3. Go over Tips for Interviewing
4. Use some of the predetermined questions on the phone or let your partner know which open-ended questions . Here is a list of suggested questions from Storycorps. Please select a few that you might want your partner to ask you to best facilitate the story you want to tell.
5. If you feel nervous or on-the-spot, don't worry! This is a low-stakes assignment partially designed to work out the kinks of interviewing. Feel free to tell a silly story or talk about why you came to Animas or even talk about a favorite memory that you have of the river or anything else. You don't have to upload these ones to Storycorps (unless you want to).
6. Make sure your I-phone is stable when you record. Elevate it to mouth-level if you can.
Jessica and Ashley to model mock interview! (If possible...)
