Hi Jay, thanks for your comment; sometimes when a student answers a question, I even invite other students to answer it, then clarify, correct or expand if need be. I always preface this exchange though by stating that the original question was an excellent one (and give a specific reason) - that way, no student feels as if they asked a question that was irrelevant or where the answer was obvious.
