Arts
- In art, a class might study the techniques of a painter and be asked to think about why these techniques were chosen or to contrast them to another artist they have studied.
Geography
- In geography, a pupil may be given data on the rise in CO 2 emissions and be asked why they think this has occurred.
History
- In history, the teacher may explain the lead up to the First World War whilst asking questions to the class about their predictions for what happened next.
