Continuing our conversation concerning Robert Marzano’s strategies that will help students acquire and integrate learning, think about the questions you are asking or the students are asking. When asking students questions:

1. Ask questions that elicit inferences
2. Ask analytic questions

Resources that focus on the concept of asking higher-level questions include:

• Bloom’s Taxonomy Model Questions and Key Words
• Bloom’s Taxonomy Revision

Barbara Waters, a science teacher whose curriculum is featured on The Annenberg Channel, suggests that, “Asking a question is harder than giving an answer. Never answer an unasked question. I think that over half a lesson should be developed from questions that the children ask — if they didn’t ask the question, they really won’t care about the answer.”

A friend once asked Isidor I. Rabi, a Nobel Prize winner in physics, how he became a scientist. Rabi replied that every day after school his mother would talk to him about his school day. She wasn’t so much interested in what he had learned that day, but she always inquired, “Did you ask a good question today?” “Asking good questions,” Rabi said, “made me become a scientist.”

Have you asked a good question today?

Our goals are to provide the following services from this domain:

• Our homepage (gaedtech.org) will be a place for ETTCs and guests to post thoughtful or insightful reflections, resources, and questions for all educators to discuss with regards to meaningful technology integration.  This is not a resource site per se, and is more concerned with thoughtful discussion and ideas about instructional technology trends.  As such, we will post when we want to share such ideas, not necessarily every day or week.
• Our Forum (gaedtech.org/forum) will serve as a central support site, not only for grant and project members, but for all educators in Georgia.  We want to help you, but also let you seek help from one another.
• Our Professional Development section (gaedtech.org/pd) is a Moodle site, where we will administer the professional development components of our grants and projects.  All ETTCs are welcome to create content here and share resources.

If you would like to contribute to this discussion, or would like to become a member of our forums, please contact your local ETTC.
