| Summary |
"Written to instruct teachers in the use of the Talent Development Model of Questioning, the authors bring a new approach to developing teacher questioning practices - helping to bridge the gap between academic concepts and students' life experiences. Valuable and unique lesson plans provide a guide for planning and conducting productive questioning practices in the classroom. Useful to teachers in grades 7-12, this material will help cue and guide student thinking about content and thought processes. The Qu:Est (Questioning Understandings, Empowering Student Thinking) instructional model described in this book emphasizes the importance of using student responses in guiding the development and refinement of student conceptual thinking." "Balancing theory and "how-to" strategies, the authors examine productive questions from two directions, how teachers learn to use productive questioning practices, and how productive questioning practices contribute to the dialogue between teachers and students to effect meaningful and purposeful instruction."--Book jacket |
