Questioning can help maintain engagement, and encourages preperation 

The Socratarian method of questioning deals with finding better ways to answer difficult questions.  This is entirely another way of saying that all questions should be taken seriously when we really consider the question.  It is common sence, explained for the multitudes!

learned using proper questions can engage students and allow students to participate.

I found the comparison of the Socratic Method and critical thinking to be both informative and interesting. 

I have experimented with using the Socratic method with some success--this information will help me practice specific kinds of questions to deepen students' understanding in class

Great suggestions and strategies for guiding questions! 

I like the idea of having another student answer a question directed at the teacher. I think it allows the more advanced students to show their knowledge and stay more engaged. 

It is important to formulate the right questions so students can think about the information which in turns fosters greater discussions and interactions. 

Questioning is a type of communication and there is an art form to it.  Questions must be at the appropriate level for the class and worded properly.  

 

its a good way to keep learners engaged. 

Ask questions! Ask all types of questions! Questions encourage discussions, discussions encourage participation, participation leads to a better learning experience

Very informative session. It has helped me to view questions in a new light. I will definitely be implementing some more Q&A in my sessions with students. Also, how to accept and encourage responses to questions - great insight!

Reinforce student responses even when it's not the answer you're looking for.
