I am very pleased with the summative assessments that both classes wrote using QFT.

However, my true delight was walking around the room hearing the buzz of “What do you mean by that..” or “There are too many close-ended questions.” The sound of QFT music to my ears. I also observed students taking full ownership of the questions. In this task students crafted the questions they wanted to investigate for the exam around the provocation..
