I did not complete the first interviewing customers assignment so this is my first interview assignment. Some students do not like to take online tests and my idea is to come up with a business that can solve this issue. I learned that almost all students have taken at least one online course. I was a little nervous asking strangers questions.
Hey Tristan! I think you did a good job with your interviews and I really like your idea. I've taken several online exams using proctor U and I hate all the technical difficulties.
As Professor Pryor said, it's totally okay to be nervous. I was too, but it gets easier. I also think it would be a good idea to ask the interviewees questions about if they've had technical difficulties using ProctorU. One last tip, if students haven't taken an online exam, you can still ask them if they'd prefer an in person exam or an online exam.
Anyway, great job on the interviews!
Here's a link to my interviews, if you want to check them out:
Hey! I love your idea! I am an online student and hate having to use ProctorU. It is very invasive. About the only advice I would give is to have asked the students who did not use ProtorU how they took there tests, i.e. live proctor or another proctoring service. This may provide more insight.

Hey Tristan, I've never taken a proctored exam, but I know people who have and they always found it kind of awkward. It's such an odd concept having someone watch you over the computer while you take an exam. I definitely would prefer in person exams. I think trying to make it better is a great opportunity that I haven't heard about before. Good luck with it. We're supposed to put our blogs in the comments so here's mine http://triedbloggingendeduponpinterest.blogspot.com/2016/02/round-2-of-interviews-ding-ding-ding.html
Hi Tristan: That's OK to be nervous. You'll get better with time. I'm glad you were able to knock this exercise out!
