Questioning Skills (pages 193, 250, and 265)

This “Questioning Skills” document summarizes the research on higher- and lower-level questions and shows the need for all students to experience higher-level questions and higher-level think-ing, regardless of their current skill level. We then make the case for planning questions in advance and model how to do so in a way that brings out the most important aspects of our content. It describes how to teach students to ask good questions, an important life skill. Referenced in The Skillful Teacher, 7th Edition, p.193, 250, 265
