The Right Question Strategy can help all individuals learn how to ask better questions, participate more effectively in decisions, advocate for themselves, their families, and communities, and hold decision-makers accountable on all levels of democracy. It is made up of two powerful tools, both created by the Right Question Institute:

• The Question Formulation Technique (QFT)
• The Voice in Decisions Technique (VIDT), formerly known as the Framework for Accountable Decision-Making (FADM)

Together, the QFT and the VIDT build powerful and foundational skills that are rarely deliberately encouraged.

Hello, my name is Lily and I hate the Classics. Also, I am an English teacher.

I know what you’re thinking. Isn’t it hypocritical to hate the Classics while you are supposed to be teaching the next generation to appreciate great literature?

First, let me clarify that I don’t actually hate all of the Classics. Just…a lot of them. And secondly, wouldn’t it be more hypocritical if I made my students read books I pretended to love while secretly wishing I could bring the dead author back to life just to tell him (it’s usually a him) how overrated he is?
