This document provides instructions for students to design and conduct a survey for a class assignment. Students will either work in pairs or individually to select a topic and design survey questions to interview classmates about. Each week students will interview a different classmate. At the end of the semester, students will write an individual report based on the collected interview data, which will be worth 20% of the student's final grade. The survey questions should include open-ended questions and introductory questions for interviewees.

• prepare some introductory questions to get your
interviewee to introduce, for example:

- their major
- their year (i.e. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th year student)

information about the report
itself at the end of the
semester.
You will type up and submit
your survey questions with
