Asking Questions to Improve Learning

Facilitator:

Dr. Denise Leonard, Associate Director for Graduate Student and Postdoc Programs

  • 9:00 am - 10:30 am
  • Zoom
  • Advance registration is required

Event Description

Asking questions during class can promote student engagement, foster reflection, and serve as real-time feedback to both students and instructors about where students are at in their learning. However, not all questions are created equally, and not all questioning strategies are effective. This workshop will explore varied question types that instructors might pose, as well as strategies for sequencing questions so that they best support and encourage student learning. This workshop will also provide strategies for responding effectively to student answers.
