"Whether or not you ever actually conduct an interview, for this lesson you need to submit 20 QUESTIONS to fulfill the assignment requirements.

1) Each Question should be several sentences in length, though some inevitably will be longer than others.

2) The first third of your questions needs to establish confidence in your readers that the person being interviewed is an authority on the topic by way of his or her experience and/or credentials. They should elicit facts and background information. They often address the basic questions of who, what, when, where, and how. Some brief examples are as follows; "What is your specific job title?" and "How long have you been working in this capacity?"

3) The second two thirds of your questions need to be more open-ended. These should engender complex and lengthy responses, rather than simple "yes or no" answers. Usually, they require an opening statement that invites the subject to comment. For example; "The plight of the homeless received considerable attention in the 1980s, but since that time little press has been devoted to the issue. Has the incidence of this situation diminished? If so, what factors combined in its reduction? If not, why has homelessness become almost invisible to the general public?"

4) In the final draft, be sure to eliminate those questions that will likely produce redundant information. Early on, it is always better to err on the side of excess, so that, in the end, you will have too much, rather than too little, material with which to work.

Create 20 questions following the instructions listed above. Direct your questions to a person of authority within a non-profit organization. Add a paragraph of introduction to your questions, in which you describe the non-profit organization, its relationship to your topic, the name and title of the person being interviewed and the reason you chose to interview that particular person.
