Hi Dr. Ernst,
Thank you for sharing your strategies for helping both your students and yourself with understanding their knowledge status through questioning. These techniques give you a baseline for how you will approach the next section of the course content. This way you will have your finger on the pulse of the class at all times.
You make a good point about revisiting the expectations of the course in relation to each student's needs. As you know students need constant reminders of course requirements, assignments and deadlines. This part of teaching seems to never change whether you are teaching elementary or adult students.
