Interview as a Method of Qualitative Research

Step by Step Guide to Oral History

Make sure that the interviewee’s words are fully integrated into your analysis, as well as your own work experiences. The essay should:

  • Describe in detail the work and life of your interviewee, contextualizing it in relation to the course readings.
  • Analyze the role of work in defining women’s history in the 20th century decades of 1920-2000.
  • Reflect on your role in women’s history as a working (or non-working) woman.
