I won a copy of this book.

The book shows one how to ask meaningful questions of their students. Learn to identify good lines of questioning to make sure students understand what they're learning, not just regurgitating facts back at you (which, in some circumstances, is important as well). This book could be used in All classrooms (pre-K all the way through 12th and beyond).

A good introduction to asking deeper questions. Not as useful to me as I had hoped.
