educreations how to make a 5 star question
Sample 5 star question
Which of the following would NOT have helped reduce the suffering in Japan after the Tsunami ? A. Make sure there is clean uncontaminated drinking waterB. Fly in 50 reporters to make sure the story is well coveredC. Teach the local people how to use a Geiger meterD. Contact Amazon to agree to donate 100 free iRads for iPhones |
5 points (characteristics) to get a 5 star ranking.
blue 1. lots of detail and vocab
green 2. you learn something by just reading the question
red 3. it is challenging and makes you think hard
yellow 4. relevant to other countries
white 5. starts a discussion and can change someone’s life
5 point (characteristics) to get a 5 star prototype
- lots of detail (blue)
- you learned something (green)
- it makes you think hard (red)
- relevant to other countries (yellow)
- starts a discussion and can change someones life. (white)
To get a license
- make a 5 star question on paper with names
- photograph it
- prove it
Put questions in SMILE
MAKE or refine your prototype
prove it is a 5 star prototype
MEASURABLE LEARNING OUTCOMES.
Students start at low level (2 star) questions and progress to high
level (5 star) questions by self-assessing their own questions instead of waiting for others to rank their question.
schedule 1.5 hours
Box game 10 min
lesson on SMILE 10 min
discussion to inspire questions- show prototypes 10 min
make a 5 star question as a group 10 min
put on paper 5 min
input on computer (switch) 15.
break 10 min.
end minutes
VIDEO RECORDING activity, where they record each other voicing their REFLECTION.
This video REFLECTION part is the MOST important part. You could have them sketch a FLOW CHART to describe what they did the past 45 minutes. Then, have them EXPLAIN that sketch and VIDEO record them while they explain. Pair the kids up so that THEY video record EACH OTHER in different parts of the room (to avoid noise overlap).
build new prototype
emotional core of inquiry learning
Targeting this point makes people excited about asking questions. I have been teaching it backwards.
This is an easy way to put Design thinking method in SMILE where you turn state the problem into a question.

15 Global Challenges
1. How can sustainable development be achieved for all while addressing global climate change?
2. How can everyone have sufficient clean water without conflict?
3. How can population growth and resources be brought into balance?
4. How can genuine democracy emerge from authoritarian regimes?
5. How can policymaking be made more sensitive to global long-term perspectives?
6. How can the global convergence of information and communications technologies work for everyone?
7. How can ethical market economies be encouraged to help reduce the gap between rich and poor?
8. How can the threat of new and reemerging diseases and immune micro-organisms be reduced?
9. How can the capacity to decide be improved as the nature of work and institutions change?
11. How can the changing status of women help improve the human condition?
13. How can growing energy demands be met safely and efficiently?
15. How can ethical considerations become more routinely incorporated into global decisions?
Facilitator’s guide revised 1
Step 1: Warm up 5 min box game
Breaking the ice with the audience by
understanding their context.
Put something in a shoe box- kids have to guess what is in the box
by asking the right question.
Instructor to kids :
Ask one question that leads you to the answer of what is in the box.
example: scissors in box.
Kids: Is it fuzzy? no (low level question)
Is it purple? no
What is it used for? (high level question)
Answer: cutting
Scissors are in the box.
Step 2 handout
Sample 5 star question
Estimated time: 10 min Introduce handout
discuss 5 star questions are questions that you learn something by
just reading the question. 5 characteristics of a 5 star question.
Step 3: Activity to inspire questions. (build Prototypes)
Step 4: Try to put questions on paper first
Estimated time: 20 min
(eva’s new chart)
Step 5: Input into SMILE website
Talal’s screen shots that show the path
NOTE to teacher:
It is easiest to make profiles for the younger kids to register them
before hand so they can input questions.
Tips:
input as pairs so the kids can help each other
to make it fun, make one multiple choice answer funny
Step 6 Kids answer and rate each other’s questions- discuss
Tip
try to each all the badges for a prize
discuss comment section
what is considered bullying
Step 7 interview kids on their learning with a video
Lesson plans
design thinking with SMILE
add video
empathy
define
ideate
prototype
TEST by designing questions, surveys in SMILE
tip
when you are away from the computer,
you can do questions on paper and save them
to input later.
