Interview Questions
Today you will write questions for an interview and read L.O. 1 from chapter 9 of the Comm book.

As you can see, I am not here today.  Because I know you will miss me so much, I give you some work to take your mind off of your deep, burning sadness.

* First, you will write two example questions for each of the five questions types that we discussed on Friday: primary, neutral, open, leading, and closed questions.
That makes ten total questions, math majors!
Use bold text to head a section of questions.  It should look something like this:
--------------------------------
Open Questions:
What do you think about my outfit?
What kind of person do you see yourself as?

Leading Questions:
What is your opinion of that terrible new Miley Cyrus song?
Tell me how much you hate Miley Cyrus.
--------------------------------
Type these questions in a doc titled "Example Interview Questions."  Make sure you put this doc in your student folder so that I can give you credit for it!
This assignment is worth 10/10 in the homework category.  You will lose questions for questions that do not follow the description of their categories.  

* Next, read through L.O. 1 (the first section) of chapter 9 in the Comm book.  We will be discussing this tomorrow, and, as some of you know, I love giving pop quizzes on reading that I don't think you will do.

Tomorrow we will discuss chapter 9 and the questions that you wrote, so use your time wisely today and get everything done.  Reminder - I love pop quizzes.  I don't know why I brought it up again.  I just love them so much that I thought I would talk about them.
