Core Questions: Catalysts, Not Conclusions
Core questions serve as preparatory tools for educators, guiding lesson planning and establishing learning objectives without being directly integrated into the teaching process itself. They help teachers define what content to teach and clarify end goals, initiating the teaching cycle. However, they do not function in the direct delivery of lessons or assessments. Instead, the teaching process involves presenting new content, checking for understanding, and allowing practice, where the core question's influence is to shape the teaching strategy rather than partake in the instructional cycle. Ultimately, the core question assists in ensuring that the knowledge is absorbed into students' long-term memory, becoming significant when reinforcing learning outcomes over time.
