Questioning for Learning and Thinking

Self-Assessment results indicated that many Skyline High School teachers desired more knowledge about using questioning and discussion techniques in their classrooms. PD 360 offers several lessons on this topic. Please visit and sign in to the PD360 site. Under "Exploring the Content", scroll about half-way down and select Questioning for Learning and Thinking.

You can earn 10 WCSD points by participating in the entire lesson (over 90 minutes, after school hours) or you can choose to participate in only those subtitles that interest you. Be sure to select the lessons for Secondary Teachers.

If you choose to participate for WCSD points, please post a blog summarizing your learning experience. Also, be sure to register on My Learning Plan.
