What is a Question in Google Classroom?
Ask a short response or multiple-choice question to the class individuals. You can ADD or CREATE resources to the question to enhance the discussion.
Best Practices - How to use Questions in Classwork
Questions with Materials, driving discussion
Students can engage in class discussion on a given topic.
Students can use materials in different formats to achieve the same goal (video, slideshow, etc.)
Remind students of Digital Citizenship when discussing topics with others.
Quick Responses from Students without Google Forms
Answer one multiple choice question and receive immediate results.
Daily Check-ins for SEL
Ideas from students on a topic using short answer.
Giving Questions to Groups or A/B Partners
Select specific students
Provide Scaffolded assignments such as (Document A is standard, Document B is for ELs, Document C is for Special Ed, Document D is an alternate)
Grade student response to question individually, tracking participation and performance individually, not by group.
Eliminate issues from sharing "I didn't get it, so I can't respond, because I don't have the assignment" or "So-and-So was supposed to share it with me but they blocked me".
Examples
Create a question for discussion based on a weekly read aloud.
Link a video clip or read aloud for students to watch and listen to Before or After answering a discussion question.
For younger grades: Link a flipgrid for students to answer the question.
Assign a pdf or article to read with a single, short-response question.
Poll the classroom to share an Opinion before a writing topic.
