Questioning in Class

I never realized the power of the question.  I grew up with classes filled with closed ended questions, only built on answering a guide full of core objectives.

I truthfully hated school and maybe that is why I became a teacher.  I wanted to give someone else a classroom where they were nurtured and assisted to develop new ideas and skills.

This class helped me rethink some of the very things which stunted my development as a child, and hopefully I will be able to employ some of these ideas to create an even more stimulating and encouraging atmosphere in class.

No question (pardon the pun) about it.  The lessons learned here will provide a strong learning envrionment.

A student cannot learn as effectively if he/she is merely a passive observer in the classroom.  Questioning is necessary for true educational fulfillment.
