Any ideas on a public service activity for a project that can be done by interviews
surveys
phone conversations
etc..
How about recycling or whether the person will vote in the upcoming elections? If they don't plan to vote or they don't recycle, why not?
Public service by telephone? That is far different than actually doing something helpful to members of the public.
Why not actually do something?
Visit nursing homes.
Collect usable toys, and childrens clothes for your local battered women's center.
Why not volunteer at the local food bank?
Why not sponsor a health fair at a community site for flu shots?
Why not volunteer to clean sick folks homes? Any local church can give you folks to help.
Why not set aside one evening a week to read for the blind? They do get mail, magazines, that has to be read. You local blind organization can give you names of folks in your neighborhood.
great i have an idea now
i have a question could i do a project on to encourage more people to vote
That would be a tough project. If you have some ideas about how you'd do it -- go for it!
One idea for a public service activity that can be done using interviews, surveys, phone conversations, etc. is conducting a community needs assessment. Here's how you can go about it:
1. Identify the target audience: Determine the specific group or community you want to assess the needs of. For example, it could be low-income families, senior citizens, or students.
2. Prepare a set of questions: Develop a set of open-ended and closed-ended questions to gather relevant information about the needs and challenges faced by the target audience. Make sure the questions are clear and concise to obtain accurate and useful responses.
3. Interviews: Reach out to individuals in the target group and conduct face-to-face interviews. You can either meet them in person or set up video calls if it is more convenient. Take notes or record the interviews to refer back to later.
4. Surveys: Create an online survey using platforms like Google Forms, SurveyMonkey, or Typeform. Share the survey link through social media, community groups, and email to reach a broader audience. Make sure to promote and encourage participation to get a significant number of responses.
5. Phone conversations: Use telephone surveys to reach individuals who may not have access to the internet. Create a set of questions that can be easily asked and answered over the phone. Keep the conversation concise and respectful of their time.
6. Analyze the data: Once you have collected a sufficient number of responses, compile and analyze the data. Look for common themes, patterns, or specific needs that emerge from the interviews, surveys, and phone conversations. This analysis will help you identify the most pressing issues that need to be addressed.
7. Share the findings: Prepare a report or presentation summarizing the findings of your needs assessment. Share it with relevant stakeholders, such as local authorities, community organizations, or non-profit groups. This will help raise awareness about the needs of the target audience and facilitate the development of appropriate public service activities or initiatives.
