QARBasics • What is it? Question-Answer-Relationship • Why is it important to know? • The answers you want are only as good as the questions you ask. • Knowing the nature of your question will allow you to be specific about what you’re asking for or what you’re being asked to answer. • A focused question will get you focused answers, even if there are multiple answers possible.
QAR Types – Examples from The Lion King • Right There: These questions have answers you will find directly in the text, often word-for-word. • Examples: Who is Scar? Who did Simba stay with after running away? • On My Own: These questions have answers that are based on your own personal opinions, values, and beliefs. The questions can be focused on the text, or they can be answered without having read, depending on how it is worded. • Examples: How guilty would you feel if someone in your family was hurt because of something you did?
QAR Types • Author and Me: These questions require you to give an opinion on the text that is limited to why the author made the choices he/she did in the text, meaning a bit of support will be necessary. • Example: Why do you think the writer decided to have the characters Timon and Pumba raise Simba?
QAR Types and Examples • Think and Search: These questions require a few things in order for it to be answered correctly. • Multiple pieces of information: You will need to gather information from various places in the text on different pages, even different chapters. • Knowledge of the setting and plot: You will need to have a solid working knowledge of the text before thinking about why something or someone is so important to it. • Knowledge of literary analysis: You will need to move beyond summarizing what happened. You will need to make educated theories based on information found in the text. You cannot just give an opinion here without textual support. • Example: How can we be sure that Simba is ready to become King at the end of the movie?
How do QAR and Bloom’s Work Together? • One of the ways to help you create the right kind of questions is to use the words from the list of Bloom’s Taxonomy Action Verbs. • Of Note: Just because you used a certain word doesn’t mean you’ve automatically created a certain kind of question. Consider the two questions below and label them using your notes. • Example 1: Why do woodpeckers peck on trees? • Example 2: Why would Cholly from The Bluest Eye rape his daughter a second time?
