About this record
Interview with the Education Manager: Public Programmes.
About the interviewee
Heather is a graduate of the MSc programme in Science Communication run in conjunction with Techniquest and had been working at Techniquest for 6 months as of the time of the interview.
About the interviews
We recorded 12 face-to-face interviews with members of staff representing a wide range of occupations at Techniquest. The intent of the interviews was to elicit their insights about the production of their area of expertise. The interviews were guided by an aide-memoire but the subjects were free to discuss their own interests. We chose to audio-record rather than video-record the interviews because we felt that a more 'traditional' form of audio-recording would be more appropriate to a mode of fieldwork that stressed the elicitation of reflections.
