ask 1: The Interviews

Prepare a questionnaire and interview an older adult to understand how life was growing up without today's technology. During the interview, discuss questions such as "how did you keep in touch with family and friends?", "how did you prepare school assignments without online assistance?", "do you find technology useful?", "are you well versed in technology today?", and so on.

Similarly, prepare a questionnaire and interview someone from a local business that has been in business for several years. Your questionnaire should consist of questions that discuss how they conducted day-to-day business activities that rely on technology today. For example, "how did you manage to keep records?", "how difficult and time consuming was it to go back and look up a client?", "how often were there mistakes?", "how long did it take you to get in touch with a client and share information back and forth without email?", and so on. Discuss their opinions on the changes that they experience when they conduct the same business activities with the help of technology today.
