This installment of the Quality Questioning series is absolutely fantastic! Every time I am exposed to the wisdom of Jackie Walsh, I am left with much to ponder and explore. Thinking Through Quality Questioning should be required reading for all classroom teachers. Excellent read!

I'd give anything to have an updated version of this book for the course I teach in critical thinking instruction.

If anyone knows of a more recent one that's similar, please let me know!
