Discussion+Questions

=GROUP TASK: Create two discussion questions from the assigned chapters. = =REVIEW THICK QUESTIONING: = What are the qualities of a good thick question?
 * 1) Force the responder to think.
 * 2) Often has several perspectives: no definite answer.
 * 3) Responders will always need to explain using examples from the text for support.

Good thick question beginnings:
 * What would happen if...
 * Do you think... Why or why not?
 * Why do you think...
 * How would things be different if....

=POST DISCUSSION QUESTIONS: = At this point, you only have to work with your group to CREATE the questions. You do not have to answer them (even though you might not be able to help it if someone comes up with a really good one!). To turn in your questions, you will post them to my class website message board. Click the link below.
