• Bon Jovi clip – Have a nice day• http://

Questioning: What’s in a question?
Mock the week videohttp://

• Socrates• If teaching is the act
of asking questions, it’s important that we think about them and plan appropriately
• Good learning starts with questions, not answers
Why is it important to get questioning right?
• Most common form of interaction in the classroom
• 400 questions a day• 70,000 questions in a school year• 1/3 of teaching time is spent asking questions• Most questions are answered in less than a
second
Why ask a question?
• The purpose of questioning in a lesson:– To develop interest and motivate students to become
actively involved in lessons– To evaluate students’ preparation and check on homework
or classwork completion– To develop critical thinking skills and inquiring attitudes– To review and summarize previous lessons– To nurture insights by exposing new relationships– To assess achievement of instructional goals and objectives– To stimulate students to pursue knowledge on their own
Different types of questioning
• Closed questions:– Useful for assessing pupil knowledge
• What temperature does water freeze at?• Who wrote Great Expectations?
• Open questions:– Useful for assessing/drawing out pupil understanding
• Should the Amazon rainforest be developed?• If you changed your name, would you be a different person?
• Lead Practitioner training: each subject will have a range of different types of questions
• Video Clip 1• What are the limitations
of this approach to questioning?
• How could the questioning be improved to develop and challenge the learner’s thinking?
• Answer on your sheet
Some key ideas
• Involving all students– Only closed questions asked– No hands up rule– Be a fixed focal point during the questioning– Adjust who you are targeting – SEN and MAT
pupils• Differentiate questions according to student needs
– Give pupils time to discuss in pairs before answering

• Questioning• On your A3 sheet as
a group create, 3 closed and 3 open questions about the story
Bloom’s Taxonomy
A system designed to stretch and develop students cognitive processes
Bloom’s Taxonomy
• On your worksheet is a copy of the Bloom’s Taxonomy and some questions
• Match the appropriate question to the correct rung on the ladder

Resisting the urge• Video clip 2 – Mixture of closed and open questions also
including think time for students• Wait-time– The amount of time you let a pupil think for before answering
a question– Give pupils time to discuss in pairs before answering– Important for open questions– Allow SEN questions longer to think
• Don’t jump in– Avoid jumping in to correct the pupil immediately– Let the pupil correct themselves or encourage others to come
up with a correct answer
Possible ideas for discussion in faculty areas
• Students asking questions:– Not only as teachers should we be concerned
about the quality of our questioning but the quality of the questions that our pupils are asking
– Stimulate students to pursue knowledge on their own• This is particularly important as we seek to encourage
our pupils to be confident independent learners
