How to incorporate a variety of questioning techniques to enhance the classroom discussion. 

Questioning is an integral part of an education. Teaching to memorize is acceptable on a foundational level; somethings you will just have to commit to your memory. However, effective questioning, causes critial thinking attributes to be developed making the student more engaged and creating a better understanding of the content in THEIR method of learning style.

I found the use of silence as a way to answer a question to be interesting. 

I learned that I need to allow time for learners to respond to a question I pose.

 

I've learned that I need to allow learners time to think of a question before I call on someone to answer. I also learned that the Socartis method of teaching is best used when exploring ideas such as with case studies.

 

Asking appropriate questions will help the students learn by engaging them in discussion. It is important to encourage participation throughout the discussion.

 

I have learned that various types of questions can build and expand upon topics, such as open-ended questions.

Understanding the methods and purposes of questioning from the instructor and learner's point of view is very helpful.  The HBS videos reinforce the concepts of questioning and the how to.  Good overview of the Socratic Method, often discussed but rarely presented in understandable paralance.  Most of the time folks just believe it is repreating why? why? why?

Being thoughtful about how different types of individuals learn new material 

 

Make sure that all questions are equally important and know the level of question that is being asked to the student/class.

Questioning tools are a great way to do a simple knowledge check
