| Essential Questions are a key element in the Understanding by Design® curriculum planning framework. A good essential question serves as a doorway for engaging student inquiry in “uncovering” the curriculum, leading to deeper understanding. In this session, we will examine key ideas from Jay’s best-selling ASCD book, Essential Questions: Doorways to Student Understanding (McTighe and Wiggins, 2013). |
This virtual workshop will be structured around the following questions:
- What makes a question truly essential?
- What are different types of essential questions?
- How are essential questions related to Standards?
- How can I design effective essential questions?
- How are essential questions used in teaching? … in assessment?
- Where can I find excellent resources on essential questions?
