Critic reviews
It can be hard to find education books where the majority of the content can be utilised in practical PE. With this book it is not the case, each chapter has a clear explanation of the research behind the idea, a practical idea, a worked example (with handy QR codes) and a template for use to plan your own implementation of the strategies. This makes it relevant and impactful.
Many people think they know all about questioning just by the high volume that they ask each day without really knowing about the process.
A no-nonsense approach to teaching and to effective questioning. This book is not just for teachers. Trainees, NQTs, Cover supervisors and LSAs will find Ross's methods invaluable on their day-to-day job. Everyone has a lot to win and learn from this.
Ross cuts through the noise of an extensive evidence base to provide yet another compelling and practicable guide to one of the most powerful tools at a teacher’s disposal – a must-read for any teacher.
All teachers must read this book. Questioning should be a major tool in our teaching toolkit and this book is full of strategies to increase both hard thinking and student engagement.
Great professional development resource for new educators and experienced educators alike. This guide to questioning explores the how and the why as well as providing clear worked models, examples, and templates... An easy read from start to finish and chapters of interest can easily be visited, an important factor for busy educators.
‘I’m just finishing my second year ECT and I wish I had this book at the beginning of my teacher training journey. The way that it explains not only how but why has given me a whole new appreciation for getting the most out of my students using these questioning techniques. As I take over lead of my subject I will be embedding many of these ideas into my lessons going forward next year... Another brilliant addition to my Teacher Toolkit library!’
Absolutely delighted with this book... Clear, concise and easy to read as ever. We will be using this as our questioning 'bible' moving forward.
This inspirational book provides a practical and grounded approach to incorporating evidence-based strategies for refining questioning, identifying knowledge gaps, and developing improved retention and recall of knowledge in the classroom.
Another excellent book from Ross. This fantastic guide to questioning is steeped in theory, giving practical and readily useable questioning technics to ensure effective classroom practice.
Ross has added yet another must-read for teachers to further enhance one of the most important, and most taken for granted strategies in the teacher toolkit - questioning. This book provides a concise analysis of the evidence base before taking the reader through a methodical approach to enable them to trial questioning techniques in the classroom with ease.
