So, you want to design a guide for your semi-structured interview but not sure of the best way to do this? I will show you how to develop the right questions and ask them in the right order, so you can get the information you need every time!
A semi-structured is a verbal exchange where one person (the interviewer) elicits information respectfully from another person (the interviewee/respondent) through a series of questions. It should feel like a good conversation.
First, remember the questions you develop rely very heavily on your knowledge of the topic. If you are researching a topic that you know well for example if you are a nurse researching patients experiences of taking medication, then you are in a good place. Whether you know something or nothing at all about the topic - always - always read the literature before developing your guide.
Once you have read the literature and have a good grasp of the topic - return to your research question and ask yourself - what information do I want to get from the semi-structured interview? Make a list of everything you want to find out using the semi-structured tool. Make sure that each item on the list only consists of one idea …questions asking about more than one thing can be unclear, confusing and introduce bias. Now you can start drafting your questions.
Remember in qualitative research, our aim to get the respondents perspective so we must use open questions and never use leading questions.
The first set of questions in your research guide must be broad questions that put the interviewee at ease and encourage them to give you their perspective for example - Tell me about your experience of coming to this school.
The middle section is where you pursue ideas in more depth and where you get the answers to your specific research questions. The interviewee is now at ease, feeling valued because you have listened to them. Now you may ask more detailed questions and use probes, to build on the respondents previous answers. For example, you mentioned that you like coming to this school because your teachers are very nice, what sort of things does your teacher do that makes you say they are nice?
In the concluding section, here you can seek clarification for anything that is still unclear and also that take into account any theories you may be using in your research for example research has shown that boys learn differently from girls. In your school how do your teachers meet the different learning needs of boys and girls
Let’s summarise
1. Make sure you are familiar with the topic - this helps you to ask relevant questions
2. Make a list of what information you want to get from the semi-structured interview - this helps you formulate questions that will provide an answer to your research questions
3. Start with broad open questions - this puts the interviewee at ease and encourages them to give you their perception

Transcripts: six tips for designing a semi structured interview guide. So you want to design a guide or protocol for your semi structured interview as part of your qualitative research project. Not sure the best way to do this, I will show you how to develop the right questions and ask them in the right order so you can get the information you need every time. A semi structured interview is a verbal exchange where one person the interviewer elicits information respectfully from another person, the interviewee or respondent through a series of questions, it should feel like a good conversation first, remember, the questions you develop rely very heavily on your knowledge of the topic. If you are researching a topic that you know well. For example, if you are a school nurse researching students experiences taking medication in the school setting, then you are in a good place. Whether you know something or nothing at all about the topic. Always, always read the literature before developing your guide. Once you have read the literature and have a good grasp of the topic, return to your research question and ask yourself what specific information do I want to get from the semi structured interview? Make a list of everything you want to find out using the semi structured tool? For example, I want to find out what teachers do that make children want to come to school or I want to know how children's friends influence their behavior in school. Make sure that each item on the list only consists of one idea. questions asking about more than one thing can be unclear, confusing and introduced bias. Now you can start drafting your questions. Remember, in qualitative research, our aim is to get the respondents perspective. So we must use open questions. an open question is one that cannot be simply answered with a yes or no But that requires more in depth answers. For example, what kind of activities did you do at school today? also never use leading questions. For example, you like coming to this school, don't you? Now let's get to the structure of the guide. The first set of questions in your research guide must be broad questions that put the interviewee at ease and encourage them to give you their perspective. For example, tell me about your experience of coming to this school. The middle section is where you pursue ideas in more depth and where you get the answers to your specific research questions. The interviewee is now at ease feeling valued because you have listened to them. Now you may ask more detailed questions and use probes to build on the respondents previous answers. For example, you mentioned that you like coming to school because your teachers are very nice. What sort of things does your teacher do that makes you say they are nice? In the concluding section? Here you can seek clarification for anything that is still unclear and also ask questions that take into account any theories you may be using in your research. For example, research has shown that boys learn differently from girls in your school. How do your teachers meet the different learning needs of boys and girls? Let's summarize. Number one, make sure you are familiar with a topic this helps you to ask relevant questions. Number two, make a list of what information you want to get from the semi structured interview. This helps you formulate questions that will provide an answer to your research questions. Number three, always use open questions and never use leading questions. Number four, start with broad open questions. This was the interviewee at ease and encourages them to give you their perception. Number five in the middle section, ask more detailed questions. By now your interviewee is relaxed feeling listened to and more at ease to provide you with detailed answers that will provide answers to your specific research questions. Number six in the concluding section, seek clarification for anything that is still unclear and ask questions that link to any research theories you may be using.
