Thick Vs Thin Questions

Here are some of the questions the class came up with as we watched the video. Who can explain the difference between thin and thick questions?

THIN QUESTIONS What year is that? How much is Baht worth in Canadian dollars? Why was the doctors expenses free?	THICK QUESTIONS How did the boy become a doctor 30 years later when he wasn't that wealthy?  What happened to the man that fell? What happened to the boys mother after? How did the boy remember that it was them?
·      Thin questions: Questions that we can find the answer to.	·       Thick Questions: More challenging questions. Often only know by one person. Take some guess work based off of the information we already have.
