CriticalThinking.org - The Role of Questions in Teaching, Thinking and Learning - 1 views

  • Thinking is not driven by answers but by questions
  • every field stays alive only to the extent that fresh questions are generated and taken seriously as the driving force in a process of thinking
  • To think through or rethink anything, one must ask questions that stimulate our thought.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • thinking begins with respect to some content only when questions are generated by both teachers and students.
  • No questions equals no understanding. Superficial questions equals superficial understanding. Most students typically have no questions. They not only sit in silence, their minds are silent as well. Hence, the questions they do have tend to be superficial and ill-informed. This demonstrates that most of the time they are not thinking through the content they are presumed to be learning. This demonstrates that most of the time they are not learning the content they are presumed to be learning.
  • Questions define tasks, express problems and delineate issues. Answers on the other hand, often signal a full stop in thought. Only when an answer generates a further question does thought continue its life as such.

      An entirely radical and unique approach to assessment. I wonder if anyone has tried it before. It will be the most demanding exam ever.
  • Feeding students endless content to remember (that is, declarative sentences to remember) is akin to repeatedly stepping on the brakes in a vehicle that is, unfortunately, already at rest. Instead, students need questions to turn on their intellectual engines and they need to generate questions from our questions to get their thinking to go somewhere. Thinking is of no use unless it goes somewhere, and again, the questions we ask determine where our thinking goes.
  • It is possible to give students an examination on any subject by just asking them to list all of the questions that they have about a subject, including all questions generated by their first list of questions.

  • Donna Angley on 22 Jun 11
     
    One of the reasons that instructors tend to overemphasize "coverage" over "engaged thinking" is that they assume that answers can be taught separate from questions. Indeed, so buried are questions in established instruction that the fact that all assertions - all statements that this or that is so - are implicit answers to questions is virtually never recognized. For example, the statement that water boils at 100 degrees centigrade is an answer to the question "At what temperature centigrade does water boil?"

  • Students are empowered to learn on their own and even to teach one another. Particularly in the discussion group mode, students have the opportunity to explain, share, comment upon, critique, and develop course materials among themselves in a manner rarely seen in the F2F classroom.
  • ar more writing-intensive than traditional classes
  • When an instructor posts a question on the asynchronous discussion board, every student in the class is expected to respond, respond intelligently, and respond several times.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • relative "anonymity" of online discussions helps create a level playing field for women, homosexuals, students with physical handicaps, and members of other potentially marginalized groups, as they can participate in class activities without being stigmatized. Moreover, the format gives non-native speakers of English extra time to contemplate questions and compose appropriate answers.
  • teach students to find and learn information on their own or in concert with their colleagues. The online environment fosters self-motivated education.
  • Online students, however, can and do e-mail countless questions to their professors and frequently engage in a dialogue that would be hard to duplicate in the F2F world.
  • Students with family or work responsibilities are often unable to commit to a traditional course because they cannot be in the same place at the same time for 15 consecutive weeks.
  • teaching styles do not work in the online environment (just as some students have discovered that their learning styles make online courses unworkable for them)

      Bravo Anne!! share your passion! think about stuff from their perspective and what would make your content relevant, applicable to their real lives. how will you know if you are doing it right? will they tell their friends about it? will they continue to do it/use it after the course? would they spend their own money to do it/use it?

  • As interesting as this article was, I would have like to have read it prior to reading the Shea, et al. article which used Garrison’s material. I think that it would have been more relavent then.
  • The cool thing is that they seemed like second nature after reading the manual, listening to the model course instructors and most importantly paying close attention to how Alex has constucted, guided and facilitated our course. I learn best by example and this has been an extraordinary model for me to follow.

      Here is a comment to my comment. We Spanish teachers who are not of Spanish-speaking origins often carry an accent with us no matter how hard we try to erase it. This is one reason why it is so important to expose our students to authentic materials in order to help them learn proper pronunciation.

  • A common format for blog posts and articles is to present a topic and then include some actionable steps at the end to help your reader apply their learning. Here are a few ways you might do this: Reflection: Ask your readers to ponder or consider the new idea or perspective you shared with them, and how they might integrate it into their lives. Journaling: Ask your readers to write about the topic. You can provide specific questions for them to answer, or invite them to ask and answer their own questions. Rehearsal: Ask your readers to practice a new behavior, habit, thought pattern or language. Suggest how many times per day or week they should do it, and in which specific situation(s). Action: Ask your readers to take a specific action or actions. Suggest how many times per day or week they should do it, and in which specific situation(s). Documenting: Ask your readers to keep track of their progress; give them a checklist to mark off their actions or ask them to record it in a journal. You may also ask them to keep track of their results, feelings or thoughts during this process. Reporting: Ask your readers to share their results with you, your community or an  accountability partner.

    Thinking of gender as an achievement
  • Diane Gusa on 22 Jul 11
     
    We usually think of gender as a set of traits (as in femininity and masculinity), a role (as in scripts for behavior), or a social variable (as in salary differences). The doing of gender discuss in this article is different than all of these. Doing gender shifts our attention away from the inner person and to the interaction, where we can see gender as an achievement. I will use this in my introductory module preceding a observation activity of watching a conversation between men and women in a social setting. The final culminating activity will be an blog reflection.

      When using the tabs at the top of the home page, it filter out information that the user isn't interested in. So, by clicking "pictures" I did not get any text descriptions...As an instructor, this is a great resource since it cuts down on the "noise" of the page and allows you to quickly access the links to the pictures that you want to show students. If I linked directly to this page from my course site, it would eliminate a student getting lost in an outside resource. Also, this particular page links to another resource: "Gray's Periodic Table." Click through it and enjoy :-)

Search the web, search books, search resources, and bring these ideas back to the class to teach the class something.
