Communities of Thinking.
Harpaz, Yoram; Lefstein, Adam
Educational Leadership, v58 n3 p54-57 Nov 2000
Under an Israeli Communities of Thinking model, teaching and learning are organized into three stages: the fertile question, research, and performance. A questioning pedagogy recreates the fertile question, undermines students' assumptions, celebrates questions, imparts knowledge questioningly, coaches research questions, and enables open questions and controversy.
