How To Listen and Process

Jessica Vance: A second step towards inquiry.

Pay close attention to the next conversation you have with a colleague or lesson with your students. After the session, reflect on the following:

  • What was the intention of the questions you asked?

  • What did you you notice about the types of questions you ask

  • How did you listen to what what being shared instead of preparing what to say next

  • How did you questions embody a sense of curiosity and wonder?

After you spend some timing pausing and reflecting, grab the Questioning Badge. This is a popular resource that I find myself going back to time and time again to give me the budge I need to slow down, be more present with my learners and further embody the dispositions of an inquiry leader.
