Getting student participation in questioning sessions

Hi Patricia- Thanks for your post to the forum. As you mention, getting to know your students makes them feel more comfortable and more likely to participate. I know that in the past I have had instructors that had clearly no interest in knowing any of us. The participation was a reflection of that. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
