Building Students’ Ability to Drive Their Learning: The Practice and Theory of the Question Formulation Technique
Join the Right Question Institute Team Dan Rothstein, Luz Santana, Naomi Campbell, and Tomoko Ouchi for this upcoming HILT conference follow-on event via Zoom
What changes when students learn to formulate better questions? How can learning to formulate their own questions increase their readiness to participate in class discussions, deepen their understanding, foster constructive dialogue and strengthen their ability to initiate and carry out independent work and research? In this session, leaders of the Right Question Institute and current HGSE lecturers will lead an active learning experience in the Question Formulation Technique (QFT), a simple but rigorous, structured method for generating and improving one’s own questions. You’ll also learn about a recently developed Theory of Question Formulation that explains how the ability to formulate one’s own questions fundamentally changes and enhances people’s ability to learn to think for themselves.
Thursday, November 14, 12:00pm – 1:00pm virtually on Zoom
