Questioning in the classroom

this course helped me in understanding and implementing questioning in the classroom

there are two types of questions: opened and closed

each type has its own advantages and disadvantages

general speaking we prefer closed type as they are simple to create , easiest to understand and very useful during lesson summary, quick review and short quizzes

but it is better to use the opened questions more as this type of questions help in high level of critical thinking

types of opened questions: Comprehension, application, procedural

types of the comprehensive: comparison, extrapolation,translation and interpretation

i have learned about wait time (1st and 2nd wait time)

conclusively, adequate wait time plus more open questions equal greater improvement
