What are essential questions?They are written to foster understandings and allow student to apply their learning · They have not simple “right” answer · They are meant to be argued · They are designed to provoke and sustain student inquiry, while focusing learning and final performances · They often address the conceptual or philosophical foundations of a discipline · They raise other important questions · They naturally and appropriately recur · They stimulate vital, ongoing rethinking of big ideas, assumptions and prior lessons
