When you ask better questions...you may surprise yourself. Part 1

It is as simple as "Can I go to the bathroom?" And my reply is, "Not sure, can you?"

Asking the right question is crucial. I find that when students are starting getting better and i"m slowly getting worse.  Since basic answers can be found as quickly as saying, "Siri, what's the formula for the Pythagorean theorem?" There has to be better way to get students thinking.  We can certainly ask google or Siri to give us the formula or answer but definitely not how to apply it to something contextual or even use it to design something different.

​ "How can I ask better questions?" As technology gets faster I feel my job now has changed.  I'm not here to compute and repeat. I'm here to faciltate learning. In order to do that I need good questions to drive that learning, and that is where I"m struggling.

​To be continued...
