Today, I am discussing an element of project-based learning that is often overlooked - how to craft a compelling driving question.⁠ ⁠ I break down the differences between essential and driving questions, I give examples of each, and a checklist or the standard of what is needed. When you are creating a driving question, I recommend a minimum of 5 iterations to encompass the criteria for that driving question.⁠ ⁠ The criteria for a compelling driving question:⁠ ⁠ - It's engaging to students⁠ - Allows for open ended responses⁠ - Opens a range of responses⁠ - Rooted in a specific context-can't be too broad⁠ - Clear language & phrasing for the students⁠ - Centers justice⁠ - Aligned to learning goals⁠ ⁠ I hope you will learn some interesting things from this discussion.
