Evaluation of essential questions

Assessment of essential questions

I evaluate essential questions according to the following criteria:

1. Provocative – 25 points

2. Open-ended – 25 points

3. Challenging – 25points

4. Relevant to the discipline – 25 points

The essential question of Julia Savostina is: What ways can we express ourselves when we do not know foreign languages?

I think this question provocative, open-ended and challenging, because it doesn’t have exactly one and easy answer. Children can not answer immediately to this question. But, in my opinion this question is very extensive. 92 points

The essential question of Julia Zhuravskaya and Saltanat Sarsenbina: Why creating a story shown on the layout helps to learn prepositions of place?

I think this question is meets all criteria. This question also doesn’t have exactly one and easy answer. Children can not answer immediately to this question. Also children should research information about prepositions of place. And this question help to improve critical thinking and creativity of learners.
