Open & Closed Questions
Friday:
Open and closed questions are two types of questions that are asked, but in this case they are used used in interviews. Both questions are used repeatedly but have different answers. Open questions are questions that are open for for an answer, and answers that can have multiple different alternatives. However, closed questions are questions entirely based on a fixated answer, being yes or no, good or bad. The answer to a closed question starts with either yes/no or good/bad, however, after one of these has been said they interviewee can expand the on the answer with the knowledge they have on it specifically.
In most interviews that you see on TV/online the majority of questions asked from the interviewer are closed questions. The reason for this, is because the interviewer is trying to get a simple answer without expanding it, which I find very interesting.
Monday:
I learnt how to interview someone that I don't know or have never met. I learnt that open questions and closed questions can help understand a person, for example, i learnt someones passion, job and hobbies from open questions, but from closed questions I could expand to open questions, i.e. asking if they specifically enjoy doing something, and later on answering to an open questions. I enjoyed this aspect of interviews as it meant that I realised in future I should prepare for questions to ask for a future documentary or interview.
Overall in this lesson, I learnt how that in order to interview people you should prepare for the questions you will ask, and come up with multiple other questions from a response to the previous ones.
