The Scenario
An edtech startup wants to understand why university students choose certain online courses over others. The product team needs to interview 8 students. You have been asked to write the interview script.
The Brief
Write a structured interview script for a 20-minute session. Include an introduction, warm-up questions, core questions, and a wrap-up. The script should avoid leading questions.
Deliverables
- An interview script with: intro/consent (2 min), warm-up (3 min), core questions (12 min), wrap-up (3 min)
- At least 8 core questions, none of which are leading or closed-ended
- Two follow-up prompts per core question (how to dig deeper if the answer is vague)
Submission Guidance
"Do you find it hard to choose courses?" is a leading question. "Tell me about the last time you signed up for an online course" is not. Show you know the difference.
