Question Formulation Technique
(QFT)

I have some good news!

You can get better at asking questions, generating more productive questions, and figuring out just the right questions  to be asking given the opportunity to develop your own ability to ask questions!

Using QFT, Question Formulation Technique, students will develop divergent, convergent and metacognitive thinking abilities and become more confident learners.

The rigorous process of learning to develop and ask questions offers students the invaluable opportunity to become independent thinkers and self-directed learners.

This process is considered both a science and an art. QFT can be used in any content area, for any type of work, and has been proven to be successful and this is supported by data. QFT is also an art because the more time that is spent practicing and honing the skill of asking and developing questions, the better the better you will become at it!

Process Overview
- A QFocus, Question Focus, presented, usually developed by the teacher that serves as the jumping-off point for student questions.
- A process for students to produce questions using a set of four simple rules.
- An exercise for students to work on closed and open-ended questions and how to change a question from one to the other.
- Student selection of priority questions.
- A student and teacher plan for Next Steps - How will the priority questions be used?
- A reflection activity for students to name what they have learned, how they learned it, and how they will use what they have learned.
