Questions
Crafting a good Essential Question is difficult. Don't let this hold you up! The template you used to develop a topic (below) is a great way to develop an EQ and sub-questions. Create a list of ALL the questions you have, and narrow it down from there!
Sample sub-questions: If my topic is "mixed martial arts", some sub-questions might be:
- What is Mixed Martial Arts (MMA)?
- When and where did it start?
- Why do people like to fight?
- What makes someone a good fighter?
- Why do some people like to watch people fight?
- What impact does a "fighting culture" have on young people?
- Can MMA facilitate life skills?
- Is violence used to promote MMA?
A good Essential Question will likely grow from these questions!
