ed 114

This is a good piggy back class to ed 103.  I began using wait times and redirections as a part of that class.  It still takes practice though.  during the lectures I have incorporated this style of questioning, i have had very good outcomes, and students are energized when they leave class (which is often at 10 pm.)  I am planning on asking my assistants to track my questions over the next two weeks to see how  often I am using open or closed ended questions.  I would assume that in some classes, with beginners, i use more closed.  Will work on that.  Good thinking practices.  Remember, students often tune out 8 - 10 minutes into a lecture, so questions are a great way to bring them back.  Redirecting can bring more students into the fold and we all need practice making sure our questions are sound.
