I learned that there are two types of questions: closed and open. Under open questions there are three subgroups: comprehension, application and procedural. I learned that comprehension questions use comparison, extrapolation, translation and interpretation. These types of questions help the student and instructor understand what the level of learning is for a student. Maybe the instructor needs to go over something. Application questions use real life scenarios, the student will apply their knowledge to solve a real world problem. A minor category consists of procedural questions like "Is everyone on the right page?'
