Focus Statement:
“Domestic extremism is the greatest threat to the homeland, yet it’s not getting nearly enough public attention.” – Elise Labott, March 22, 2021
Question Formulation Technique (Directions)
Read the Focus Statement above
Create as many questions as you can based on the focus statement (Write a minimum of 4 questions)
You can write questions that you would need to answer to understand the statement, to prove the statement is correct, to prove the statement is false, or questions that the statement inspired but may not be directly proving or disproving the statement
Do not stop to discuss, judge or answer any of the questions
Write down every question exactly as it is stated
After the brainstorming, if you have any statements, change them into questions.
