Conversation with Dan Rothstein on teaching students the skill and fostering the confidence for asking more meaningful questions across all disciplines. My own sense is that the process Dan describes (QFT) is a prerequisite for teaching students to design the most effective searches on the web. Dan is the co-author with Luz Santana of “Make Just One Change: Teach Students to Ask Their Own Questions” and also the co-director of the Right Question Institute – https://rightquestion.org.
