Questioning in the Secondary School

In Questioning in the Secondary School, Ted Wragg and George Brown explore the wide range of questions that teachers can ask, from those requiring simple recall of information right up to those that stimulate complex reasoning, imagination and speculation. The book explores the various strategies open to teachers and, through a combination of activities and discussion points, helps them to:

• reflect upon their uses of questions
• develop their approaches to preparing, using and evaluating questions
• explore ways to encourage pupils to ask questions
