CES Fall Forum 2016

All students can learn to ask their own questions; all families can ask questions to partner more effectively. This session will introduce the Question Formulation Technique (QFT), a step-by-step process for producing, improving and strategizing on how to use questions. Educators can integrate the QFT into their practice to promote and sustain deeper learning, nurture curiosity, and develop critical thinking skills. The QFT can also be used to engage families in problem solving and to partner more effectively in their children’s education. The session will provide experience with the strategies described in The Right Question Institute's publications Make Just One Change: Teach Students to Ask Their Own Questions and Partnering With Parents To Ask the Right Questions.
