Abstract: - Dialogic intention -
To ask geographical questions by sharing ideas as a group

- Subject and topic -
Geography (headland erosion)

- Video Description -
In a geography lesson about the processes of headland erosion, students were given three minutes in groups to discuss what geographical questions they could ask about an image and a question on the board (‘what happened to Old Harry’s wife?). The students then used Talkwall to add at least two geographical questions.

- How does Talkwall support this? -
The teacher encouraged the students to read each other’s questions on the contribution feed and try to come up with different questions. This encouraged students to pose a wider range of geographical questions.
