Description
Today, I am discussing an element of project-based learning that is often overlooked - how to craft a compelling driving question. I break down the differences between essential and driving questions, I give examples of each, and a checklist or the standard of what is needed. When you are creating a driving question, I recommend a minimum of 5 iterations to encompass the criteria for that driving question. The criteria for a compelling driving question: - It’s engaging to students - Allows for open ended responses - Opens a range of responses - Rooted in a specific context-can’t be too broad - Clear language & phrasing for the students - Centers justice - Aligned to learning goals I hope you will learn some interesting things from this discussion.
