Tips for Successful Job Interviewing: PreparationRalph Hatem
Preparation: The following presentation outlines what to expect from the interview, and how to put your best foot forward through research, revision, and rehearsal.
NUX Newcastle Sept 2015 event - James Oliver, a User Experience Consultant, offered useful tips & pointers for those looking to facilitate some user interview research sessions – for beginners as well as good reminders for those with some experience. This was followed by an activity where teams picked from a lucky dip of research topics, brainstorm questions and formulated these into interview scripts. After a few rounds of practicing interviewing, the talk will end with tips on how to analyse the results and what can be done next.

On September 17th 2015, I presented a 'User Research: Prep & Practice' workshop at NUXUK (Northern User Experience) in Newcastle. The 1hr session consisted of basic tips and introductions into why, how, where, what if etc. This was followed by providing example topics to brainstorm themes around questioning. Next I showed a selection of example questions to help give steer into how to write good & open interview questions. Then there was time to refine ideas into questions & a first-draft script. We then pilot-tested the scripts by mixing up groups. Finally I wrapped up with tips on what to do with all the data once the interviews have been completed. There is also some useful links to further reading.

This slide will guide other researchers that wants to collect data using Interview method. It teaches how to analyse the data as well. This was a presentation that was carried out in our research method class by our group.
Research methodology is the specific procedures or techniques used to identify, select, process, and analyze information about a topic. In a research paper, the methodology section allows the reader to critically evaluate a study's overall validity and reliability.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

1. PP Workshop: Session 6
Research techniques & Info evaluation
1. Questionnaire
• Who are your target respondents
• What do you want to know
2. Interview
3. Information evaluation
9. Questionnaire Design
• A short and meaningful title;
• Well-defined goals;
• Clear and concise instructions on how to complete the
questionnaire;
• Begin with easy / interesting questions;
• Place the most important items in the first half of the
questionnaire;
• Respondents often send back partially completed
questionnaires;
• KISS = Keep it short and simple.
10. Questionnaire design
• Use simple and direct language.
− use short sentences and basic vocabulary
• Provide incentives
− motivation for a properly completed
questionnaire.
• Make it convenient
− to complete
− to return
• Use a target group to run a trial for your questionnaire.
11. How to set questions
• Use multiple choice questions
• Avoid using the word “AND”
− e.g. Do you like the smell and the texture of
chocolate biscuit
− Do you like playing football and tennis.
•
Leave no ambiguity to respondents.
− There should be only one correct or
appropriate choice for the respondent to make.
12. How to set questions?
Avoid emotionally loaded or vaguely defined words,
e.g. most, least, majority.
− these adjectives mean different things to
different people.
Put similar questions into groups
Do not use unfamiliar words or abbreviations.
− Remember who your audience is and write
your questionnaire for them.
Do not ask the respondent to order or rank a series of
more than five items
− the complexity of the task makes the answers
less reliable.
