Conducting Interviews as Part of Research
On Tuesday, March 26, my Elphintone Secondary Socials 11 class was very honoured to receive seven World War II veterans as guests. We began with each guest telling a bit about their story of involvement in the war. That part was attended by two other classes and filmed by Ms. Doerksen. Also, the ACE-IT program provided tea, cookies and tarts. Thank you everyone!

Then my class broke up into groups and interviewed individuals while recording the interviews using "Garage Band" on the laptops. Thanks to Mr. Daniels for helping us set up the computers for the interviews and showing us how to save the interviews on a disc afterward. In addition to saving these primary accounts for future classes, students will write and present reflections on their interviews.
