Assignment Introduction This assignment is interview-based. You may enlist the help of your teachers or adult family members. You should have a list of questions prepared ahead of time and have the ability to record the responses. Assignment Directions Choose someone, such as your school principal, counselor, or a school board member, to interview. Your main topic question will be: What environmental influences affect the school? How does the school address issues of sustainability? Write down several related questions in advance as well as possible follow-up questions. Be sure to take detailed notes, even though you are recording the responses. Recordings fail, as does the memory. Allow approximately fifteen to twenty minutes for the interview. Respect the person's time and do not go over, unless they insist on going longer to explain a point. Be sure to thank your interviewee for his or her time. From your notes and recording, you will write up the interview as an article, suitable for running in a school magazine or newspaper. 100 POINTS!
