This one was a tricky one for me. I had to understand the
different types of questions before I can frame my own. My tutor was of great
help and feedback and posts from my colleagues helped also. I now have a better
understanding of the types of questions.
Essential Questions:
The
essential questions generally spark curiosity and allow students to be engaged
in meaningful discussions. They also require higher order thinking skills. E.G
what makes a plant a plant? Do we really need plants?
Unit Questions:
The unit questions assist in
answering essential questions. They help the students to construct their own
meaning from the information gathered. This in turn requires higher order
thinking skills. The questions used are generally based on the objectives of
the project.
how do plants grow?
Content Questions:
The
content questions answer the definition and deals with identification and
generally record of information that was gathered. These questions also assist
in answering the unit questions which are generally base on facts.
Will plants still be able to grow when we take away certain
condition?
