If we are researchers, then it is imperative to interview as many students as we can. However, if we are teachers with limited time, then it may be more important to use interviews as a way to access individual student perspectives.Perhaps a lot more information can be obtained from one well conducted interview than from a large number of interviews.Joan Feihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15558024177262230473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257488513052953562.post-83138640374792697142015-09-22T08:14:54.914-07:002015-09-22T08:14:54.914-07:00Re: Ginsburg-- I definitely agree with you that cl...Re: Ginsburg-- I definitely agree with you that clinical interviews seem like a really beneficial tool in the classroom to help gauge students' learning processes. However, I also wonder about the practicality of these interviews given time constraints, etc. How can we as teachers try to modify the clinical interview to include more students in less time? I guess sometimes, these interviews are done in groups to accommodate more students at once. Would this be as effective or effective in a different way?JSkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297550875433921867noreply@blogger.com
