How to Use Questioning to Maximize Student Curiosity and Engagement (Erik Francis)

How to Use Questioning to Maximize Student Curiosity and Engagement (Erik Francis)

In this episode, I am joined by Erik Francis, author of the new book Inquiring Minds Want to Learn. In our conversation, we discuss not only how to use questioning as a form of assessment but, perhaps more importantly, as a tool for maximizing student interest and engagement in learning.

We also discuss what is wrong in how we are using Depth of Knowledge Questioning tools as well as a more research based and sound approach to using the Hess Cognitive Rigor Matrix than how most of us currently use this resource.

Hint - A question's level of rigor should match what denotes grade level proficiency on a particular standard.
