Goldsmith slide

Do not just ask questions to move the lesson along. Do not move the lesson along after taking the
answer only from one student and assume that the whole class got the points. Use questions as a
tool to formatively assess your students

Bloom! Do we ask question to just get the expected answers ? Do we just as questions regardless of
where we are with the lesson? regardless of what level of thinking students are at and regardless of
the level of difficulty? IT STRUCTURE OUR QUESTIONING AND MAKE IT EFFECTIVE AND PURPOSEFUL
RATHER THAN RANDOM AND DISCONNECTED

The taxonomy wheel and doc: Very useful resources are available for us everywhere to use to

objectives based on the level of thinking the students are at, helps you with the possible questions
you could ask and not only that it also gives ideas for the kind of tasks? activities to use at each

DISTRIBUTING AND DIRECTING

Make sure that everyone participates. No hands up policy/Avoid waiting for the volunteering
method because it will trigger only the most confident students.

What about naming? Do you think it is a better way? Can and can not; saying “this question is for…”
will make the rest think they are safe as the question is not for them. But, if you ask the question to
the whole class, allow reasonable wait time so that everyone thinks of an answer without knowing
who will be called upon to answer would be the better way for using naming.
