Knowledge is Having the Right Answer. Intelligence is Asking the Right Question!

Here is our third and final Padlet that shows how we are learning to leave quality blog comments. 

Today we practised asking relevant questions. First we had to explore what the word 'relevant' meant. Hannah said it means the question relates to the topic and it's meaningful. We all agreed with this. 

We know Patrick and Ralph's blog post about their trip to Queenstown pretty well by now, so we were able to quickly nut out a few questions. Things we explored further when practising were open and closed questions and we were wondering if it is going to be a 'Yes' or 'No' reply...how could we make our question open so more of a conversation begins? 

What do you think of our 'open and relevant' questions? What else might you ask Patrick and Ralph?

    You have brainstormed some really good questions and Padlet makes it so easy. I wish we could go on a tour.
