Reading, then devising questions based on the readings

In class you will be evaluating some case studies: Types of teaching; school systems; and ways of learning. To make the evaluation easier you need questions to guide you. To prepare for the class, you are to write sample questions on this Padlet and the class will agree which ones will be used.

Read The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4 and its targets: http://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/education/
