Changing Thoughts on Questioning

Posted on July 29, 2021 By Amanda Younger No Comments on Changing Thoughts on Questioning

In my most recent course we have done a lot of work on questioning and asking good questions. My response below comes from the thinking routine I used to think .. Now I think from Project Zero.

Resources for questioning that changed my thinking

Factual, Conceptual, Debatable Questions

Essential Questions

Good Inquiry Questions

Characteristics of an essential question according to Jay McTighe:

  • open-ended and typically will not have a single, final and correct answer
  • thought-provoking and intellectually engaging, often sparking discussion and debate
  • calls for higher-order thinking, such as analysis, inference, evaluation and prediction, and cannot be answered by recall alone
  • points toward important, transferable ideas in (and sometimes across) disciplines
  • raises additional questions and sparks further inquiry
  • requires support and justification, not just an answer
  • recurs over time; the question can and should be revisited again and again
