Students are required to design, conduct, tape-record and transcribe an interview of at least half an hour in length with a relative or family friend aged over 40. The interview should focus on the relationship between gender and housework and explore continuities and changes she or he has observed in regard to this relationship over the course of her/his life. Students must obtain a signed interview consent form from their interviewee prior to conducting the interview (example of an interview consent form below). It is strongly recommended that you watch the following clip on Oral History Research Method before designing and conducting the interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nX1odZDA0gk&feature=related
