    Curiosity is at the heart of lifelong learning. It not only gives children an advantage in school, but today's business leaders agree that it's also at the heart of successful organizations.

    Psychologists view curiosity as a life force, vital to happiness, intellectual growth, and well-being. It points students toward the knowledge, skills, relationships, and experiences that they need to live full and productive lives.

    Often, the temptation(诱惑)is to benefit students when their curiosity leads to a desired outcome or good grade. But it's more important to notice and strengthen curiosity when you see it in action. When you praise students by describing how their questions and explorations are contributing to their own or classroom learning, you let them know that they are valued for their motivation, regardless of the grade they achieve.

⒉Teach students how to ask quality questions.

    Quality questions are vital for curiosity; Google, is great at finding answers but doesn't motivate the formation of questions. An excellent book for understanding the art of questioning is A More Beautiful Question by Warren Berger.

⒊Spread the curiosity around.

    Curiosity is influential in groups working toward a real-world common goal, helping to inspire questions and new ideas.

⒋Explore a variety of cultures and societies.

    How is one culture or society uniquely different from another one? Encourage students to explore their genetic or emotional links to other cultures.

A. Value and reward curiosity.

B. Teach students to be critical.

C. Good questions contain “why,” “what if,” and “how”.

D. Why do they relate to certain beliefs or values that other societies hold?

E. The greatest advantage of curiosity lies in its power to motivate learning.

F. Create opportunities for more curious and less curious students to work together in learning.

G. How can students create a new poem, science experiment or product from their explorations?
