Interview invitation for the family groupchat (usa):
Hi everyone
I am currently working on a project for school about women in IT.
Since our class has to collaborate with people from different countries I was
wondering if any of you were up to do an interview with me.
We could either zoom together or I could send you the questions and you'd be able to send
me the audio recordings with your answers. Either way I will just use the audio to create a
little podcast to showcase my project.
xoxo

examples:
interview / recorded phone call with my Dad
We covered memories about my grandma and ideas on who to talk to about women in IT. Additionally, we covered my future career options (would I work in IT? would I even be interested? If so, what interests me? )

Difficult vocabulary:

a reduction in or restriction on the availability of electrical power in a particular area - eine Stromnetzstörung
How did women disappear from the IT industry? Most importantly how can we bring them back?
This is the main question of my thesis. When you think of the IT industry, you think of a male dominated field. But did you know that coding used to be a woman's business? Sadly, over the years the idea that computers are for men has become a narrative.

Project Topic: (9)
The project topic is clear. I knew from the beginning what was interesting to me.
Team-building: (5)
Since I am not very good at group work I decided to be my own "team". I already chat with my aunt and a few other IT-students about the IT Industry and will start interviewing them soon.

Achieved: We have been very productive today, we have published our survey, developed an instagram poster and created the mind map. On the flight altitude we would be now 20 000 m high :-)
Our techer informed us about the topic, but I am not ready to fill the this survey.
In progress...
