Asking Better Questions to Improve Thinking and Learning in Lessons
Would you like to:
• engage your learners in more challenging discourses?
• encourage your learners to raise searching questions of their own?
• provide your learners with more independent approaches to their research?
‘We learn by asking questions. We learn better by asking better questions. We learn more by having opportunities to ask more questions.’ Morgan and Saxton.
The level of intellectual enquiry in classrooms is often indicated by the quality of the questioning asked by teachers, and – just as importantly – those raised by the learners. Many teachers of G&T students regularly reach for strategies such as those proposed by Bloom and his colleagues. Yet, there are other alternative approaches to questioning, including those proposed by Norah Morgan and Julianna Saxton, whose important work on researching the power of effective questioning can lead to significantly changed classroom approaches capable of improving the depth of learners’ relationships with their learning. This session could change some key classroom practices in your school almost immediately.
