The conversation first started to change off of topic, which I do not want to happen in my final task, therefore I will be making sure that the questions asked in my topic are open but don't invite the conversation to go off-topic.

I also feel as if some of my interviews didn't really correlate to my topic as much as I would like them to have. What have I learned/ what will I do in my final task differently? In my final draft, I will continue the idea of...
