Address the following questions:

• What is an appreciative interview?
• What are the purposes and benefits of appreciative interviews?
• How can you incorporate an appreciative approach in your action research without specifically using the 4D process (e.g., the focus is on engaging the philosophy of appreciative inquiry)? Why is this important? Or why isn't it?
