What is the difference between essential questions (à la Wiggin's Understanding By Design) and driving questions?" Essential questions, when created to their utmost potential are driving questions. Driving questions are just essential questions that are high on caffeine. They demand authenticity and rigorous problem-solving, which essential questions can do, but don't always.
