  • Determine the information you want to gather.
  • Decide on the group/type of participants you will be interviewing. 
  • How many focus groups do you think you need to get the information you wish to gather?
  • What questions will you ask?
  • Where/who will you pilot or test the questions with? How do you wish to deploy the actual focus group? In person or online?
  • Do you foresee any ethical issues while administering the focus group?
  • Any other thoughts or requirements?

    2. Number of students who we have enrolled in class and demographics

    Students who are not in the class but have taken it previously

    I agree!

    How familiar are you with this class? This instructor? Other instructors of this class?
    What is your favorite part of the course?
    Least?
    How often did you attend the course?

    I think we could get greater participation with an online focus group.
