      This looks like it would be very helpful for syudents working together on projects. Are there any issues with students plagiarizing other student work?

      Helping kids think about where they might access primary sources, an author's web page or autobiography, for a literary project would be helpful.

  • A good education is grounded in such life-long questions, even if we sometimes lose sight of them while focusing on content mastery.

      Curious how a math teacher would respond to this. With the explosion of information available to our kids, how important is content?
  • “Is any history capable of escaping the social and personal history of its writers?”

      Philosphy? Novel? Doesn't context always matter?
  • By actively exploring such questions, the learner is helped to arrive at important understandings as well as greater coherence in their content knowledge and skill.

  • Is such a leading question bad? No. There are all sorts of good pedagogical reasons for using a question format to underscore knowledge or to call attention to a forgotten or overlooked idea.

  • Where did Nixon (or Clinton) go wrong? Why do you suppose he slipped from power and grace? What caused him the most trouble? What could you learn from his example?

      This seems a loaded question. Does the question assume an opinion about Nixon (or Clinton) that may not be true, or that a thoughtful person might argue? Shouldn't we allow students to draw their own conclusions/
  • Which candidate has the most credible and logical approach to bringing peace, stability and democracy to Iraq?

      Like this question better. Evaluative questions always make sense to me.
  • What did General X do in the Battle of Some Big River?

      Always thought General X was one of the best leaders in history, particularly at the Battle of Some Big River!

  • As a practical matter, students need to be able to read between the lines, infer meaning, draw conclusions from disparate clues and avoid the traps of presumptive intelligence, bias and predisposition.

      Ditto this! This should be our goal as teachers.
