What do young children do when they want to know something?
They ask A LOT of questions!
![Page 3: Costas Levels of Questioning. What do young children do when they want to know something? They ask A LOT of questions!](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061305/551442ad550346284e8b4a09/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Asking questions about things we
don’t know is another way we
learn new information
The higher the level of question, the
higher the level of thinking and
understanding you achieve.

• In AVID, we will be developing questions for the material that we work with (tutorials and Socratic Seminars).
• It’s true, there is no such thing as a bad question, but some are definitely better than others.
• We want to use questions that require some serious brain activity!!!

There are three levels of questions and “academic vocabulary” you should be familiar with.

Arthur Costa
• Educational researcher
• Divided questions into three categories depending on the quality of the question.
• If we learn to use these categories, we’ll become better thinkers.
![Page 7: Costas Levels of Questioning. What do young children do when they want to know something? They ask A LOT of questions!](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061305/551442ad550346284e8b4a09/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What’s the big deal?
• Learning takes place when you produce
knowledge not reproduce it.
• Recognize a higher-level thinking question: Colleges want you to be able to dig deeper, use higher level thinking questions.
• Needed for Tutorials and Socratic Seminars…so we can have a common language
