The idea behind this project is simple, yet I believe quite powerful: if you can learn how to ask good questions, are learning how to learn more effectively.
My students will endeavour to research, discuss and then develop questions that will help them learn how to learn. The topics will vary, so will our guest interviewees.
Students will ask our guests their best questions in the hopes of eliciting the response, “That’s a good question!” When and if this happens during the course of the interview, students are quite likely to applaud or cheer with the satisfaction of knowing that their question has earned this honest praise and feedback.
So please take a moment to listen in and enjoy my students’ questions and some very interesting answers from some of the world’s most interesting people.
Please let us know what you think!
Sincerely,
Teacher,
Students interview Nora Young, host of CBC Radio’s Spark, about technology and the role it plays in our lives.
