Instructor Interview Project:
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to attend a class in a subject area you are considering for a profession? Most people never get the chance to do this--and so they enroll in programs that may not actually be what they thought they would be. This project gives you a chance to meet with an instructor in a field of study you are considering--or in a class that you know you will take for your program. Part of the assignment involves going to one of the instructor's classes and then making a short report on your experience for your classmates who might also benefit from the information. Here are the files you need to get started on this project:

Go to
www.spscc.edu
Go to Current Schedule > Fall 2014 Quarterly Schedule.>Complete screen filter blanks>Locate class you want>Click on Professor's name to get contact information (phone, email, office)
Email is a good way to contact faculty, but it is best to both call and email. You are to find three (3) different instructors. Contact only one at a time. If you don't hear back from the first instructor within a couple of days, try again. If they don't answer you after two tries, go to the next instructor on your list. Be persistent and respectful.
