Interviewing
Interviewing represents a method by which researchers can gather firsthand data directly from a stakeholder or a group of stakeholders. This interactive process allows stakeholders to express their views without restraint, enabling researchers to scrutinize these insights and delve deeper into topics of significance. This strategy is particularly effective during the preliminary stages of a project, when information about the subject matter might be scant. Furthermore, interviewing is a valuable tool when it comes to accessing specialized or expert knowledge in a specific domain. It provides the opportunity to understand complex concepts from those who are intimately familiar with them.
