EFFECTIVE QUESTIONING

 
One's first step in wisdom is to question everything - and one's last is to come to terms with everything.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742 - 1799)

A lesson is never complete without a questioning session. I am recently actually enjoying the way I question and I also feel that even the students feel it is more effective than before.
There are two strategies that I particularly enjoy. ‘Wait time’ that build up a lot of anxiety and excitement in the students and ‘Scamper’ that enables students to explore ideas, modify them and  finally present them  in new light.
