Field Project Self Evaluation

Self-Evaluation
Conducting interviews during this Field Project was an enlightening and fun experience. During the interviews with my professionals, I notice three areas where I did well, and two where I can improve. Developing rapport, implementing a good closing technique, and asking good open-ended questions were strengths in my interviews. I felt like I did a good job making the interviewees feel comfortable and ready to disclose information about their personal experiences. At the end of each interview, I gave the professionals the opportunity to provide me with any other information the thought was important. I thought this was a good way to close my interview because I ended up gaining more information than I thought I would receive

    For this assignment, I interviewed Felicia Low, a Program Advisor at the School of Public Health. This interview taught me a lot about myself and my interpersonal communication skills when it comes to communication on a one-on-one basis. Prior to the interview, I was a bit nervous since I did not know Mrs. Low personally and never communicated with her face-to-face. I prepared to conduct the interview in a way that it would feel like a normal conversation and not a regular interview. For example, I would not always say things from the interview questions that I prepared, I would sometimes ask a question on piece of information that she would share.…

    Reflection When signing up to take the Final Project Course this fall I was extremely nervous and not excited to start. Walking into the first day of class and learning more about what the final project would entail, I did feel slightly better but still scared that it was going to be too overwhelming and hard to complete by myself. Luckily, the individual meetings and emails with my professor made everything much more clear and inviting. These final project meetings were very helpful in terms of receiving constructive criticism and then going back home to make changes to the paper.…
