How the position relates to it

Homework: Essay- Documented Argument in APA

In this homework, students will interview their selected IT professionals (client) and have an in-depth discussion about the client's job AND his/her information need on a topic related to his/her job and then write a 2-page "Interview Summary" paper (double-spaced) about their interview with the IT client.

Note: The interview is to focus on the IT client's job and a specific "information need" he/she has related to the job - not a personal discussion about the client's family, education, hobbies, interests, etc. Once the information need has been identified and discussed, you (the student consultant) will research and locate information sources to support the client's information need by preparing an Annotated Bibliography to submit to the client (and your instructor) for their review and feedback in IC Project Homework.

The interview with the IT professional (client) is recommended to take place in-person as a "professional" meeting at the IT Professional's site. If this is not possible, the interview may take place informally with the IT professional (client) through a phone call, email, or synchronous meeting (e.g., Skype, Google Hangout, Zoom, etc.); however, texting the client is not an acceptable form of communication for the interview.

The interview with the IT professional (client) should include a discussion of the following topics and be included in the Interview Summary paper: (each bullet should be a separate paragraph)

I. Identify/explain how the interview took place (in-person, telephone, conferencing?) and for what length of time (e.g., 15 mins., 30 mins., 1 hour?)

II. IT professional's (client) name and organization where he/she works

III. IT professional's (client) job position/title in the organization

IV. Background information about the organization (what is the organization's primary business, service, or function?)

V. Background information about the IT professional's job including:

1. Department where he/she works in the organization and its primary strategic goal/mission in the organization.

2. Client's job description, job responsibilities, how the position relates to "IT" (information technology), and whom he/she services or supports in the organization and in what capacity.

VI. Background information about the client's topic and information need (what is the client looking to understand, learn about, or otherwise become familiar with a topic relevant to his/her work role? How will these information sources be used?). Did you refine the IT client's information need (or change to a different information need) since the IC Project Proposal in order to identify a more feasible topic that would produce relevant information sources when conducting searches? (explain)
