“Ultimately questions spark imagination, conjure emotions, and create more questions. The questions asked by a teacher or professor are sometimes more glaringly valuable than the information transferred to the students. Those questions spark a thought, which leads to a fiercely independent search for information.” Here’s a lengthy list of questions that will promote metacognition in students. My first thought was to add some of these to my list of “Exit Pass” questions.

P.S. — Google must be reading our minds. After I suggested yesterday that the 30gb limit is sometimes limiting, some Teacher List readers pointed out that just this week, Google announced plans to remove the limits and fees for upgrade to all Google Apps for Education accounts. That change is taking place in the near future. Thanks to those who pointed it out!
