Blog 14: Interview 3 Preparation


1.  Who do you plan to interview?  What is this person's area of expertise?
I plan to interview either Sean Bouchard or Elizabeth Swensen, who are my mentors and professionals in game design. They are two associates at the University of Southern California, and both specialize in educational video games. 

2.  Verify that you have called your interviewee to schedule an interview.  What is the date and time of the interview? 

Our next mentorship day is tomorrow, and it will likely take time around 4:00 PM.

3.  Phrase an open-ended question that will help you find research resources that would help to answer the EQ.

- What materials helped you most when you were still a student learning about educational video games? Why were they helpful?

4.  Phrase an open-ended question that will help you think about other useful activities you might do to help you answer the EQ (IC2, possible experts to talk to, etc).

- When you were first starting out in this genre of video games, what creative projects relating to them did you have yourself make?

5.  Phrase two open-ended questions that help you to understand your interviewee's perspective on an aspect of your EQ. 


- What would you say were the biggest weaknesses you had in your first developments of educational video games?

- In your words, what would you say are the most important components in an educational video game?
