Audience Feedback:

Methodology:

Which method will best allow you to collect the information you want?

The method I have chosen to use is that of semi-structured interviews, which I will conduct with a
number of participants from our target audience. I have selected a qualitative method on the basis
that it will provide me with a higher degree of validity, allowing me to understand audience
responses in more depth – as is supported by the use of semi-structured rather than structured
interviews, which allow for supplementary questions to delve further into a participant’s
perspective.

In addition to this, I will be distributing online questionnaires to my target audience, on the basis
that a supplementary quantitative method will allow me my findings to be more representative of
my target audience. This means that any generalisations I make within my evaluation will be more
valid, as they are supported by a larger proportion of the target audience. Furthermore, the method
is quick, effective and easy to use, making it not only theoretically valuable, but also practically
suitable.

How you will present your findings?

I will present these findings in a video, enabling them to be seen authentically as opposed to edited
through transcription. This further allows me to make effective use of new media technology,
ensuring the most appropriate software is selected for each task.

With regard to the latter method of a questionnaire, I will make a video summarising my findings
and insert screenshots of responses.
