Question formulation is a foundational and transformational skill for learning, self-advocacy, and civic engagement. However, this skill is often overlooked and not deliberately taught in formal and nonformal education. This workshop equips educators to use a rigorous and practical strategy for building students’ capacity to drive their learning through question formulation.
Join this active learning session to experience the Question Formulation Technique (QFT), a powerful tool to teach people how to generate and work with their own questions. Following a QFT experience, you will explore a variety of applications in diverse fields, and you will find how impactful and universally applicable the QFT is.
