Methodology Review and Critique

The methodology used for this Oral History project the interview. Using the information obtained with this interview we have had to make an essay and elaborate blog, dividing the information in different and ordered parts:

-Presentation (of myself, the blog and the project).

-The Topic and the Objectives (of this work).

-The Background (of history of the theme we chose).

-The interview (in audio format).

-Essay and Conclusions (obtained from the interview).

-Methodology Review and Critique.

The main critique I think I can do to this method of work and this project, is that it needs a lot of time to do it, and that for example, as happened in my own case, I had clear who I wanted to interview and what to talk about in my work, but to do it, I had to travel to my hometown to be able to make the interview to the narrator, my grandmother. It may be also a problem if you have to do it with busy people, because it may be difficult to find enough time to make properly the interview, without rushes and with time to think, ask and answer all the questions estimated for it to the narrator. But the interview is the most basic way of recording and transmission of information in Oral History, which is the main theme and the base of this work.
