Questions
I frequently ask questions in class in an attempt to get interaction with the students. Often times the students give me blank stares. After completing this topic I think my questions are too broad and the students are unsure of how they need to answer or what type of response I am wanting.
I too find myself asking a lot of questions to my students, but I do this to help them start to develop critical thinking, I know they enjoy the questions and answer process, esp when they can think through a difficult question...
Most instructors have adept understanding of the subject matter they are teaching, and it's our job to ensure the students comprehend the information you are teaching.
Hi Kimberly, Thanks for your post to the forum. I am glad that you found some useful ideas for questioning! Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career.
