Overview Aim: To engage deeply with questioning approaches. We will: • Watch a video about classroom questioning; • Carry out a role play; • Share experiences and thoughts.
Video • Watch the video • Think about how the points made in the video relate to your own practice.
Role play 1. Decide on a context and work together to devise some effective questioning to use in this context. 2. Carry out a role play, with one person being the ‘teacher’ and the others being ‘students’, to try out your questions.
Reflections Reflect on why and how the questions were (or were not) effective in your role play. Discuss one or more of the following questions: • Pick a question. What opportunities did it provide for the student? What did it provide for the teacher? In which ways was it an effective question? • What different sorts of questions were used? • Did question x get the sort of response that was predicted?
Finishing off Share your reflections. The devise some further questions that you think should be effective in stimulating student thinking during a lesson. Before next time try these questions out in a lesson and be ready to share your experiences.
