3.3 When Do We Ask Questions? The following are the times you can ask questions during the period of teaching a lesson. However, you do not have to be rigid about the stages. They are just guiding principles. The nature of the topic being taught will determine when you can ask questions and how many questions are required. At the beginning of a lesson: We may ask questions at the beginning of a lesson to find out the learners’ entry behaviour of the topic to be taught and to connect that knowledge to what is about to be taught. Such questions enhance good introduction to your new lesson topic. Throughout the presentation stages. Questions asked at these stages give room to active participation of the learners in the lesson. It also prevents passive listening and day dreaming. In moving from one point to another, we may pause to ask questions to clarify misconceptions of the points raised in the lesson. The level of participation of the learners in answering the questions serves as directives to the teaching in which way forward (either to wind back or move ahead). At the end of the lesson: Questions are useful means of revising a lesson. At this stage you are already evaluating the success of your lesson. Questions asked and answered at this stage can help a teacher to build up his chalkboard summary for the learners to write down in their notebooks. When necessary, such questions should aim at emphasizing the salient points raised during the lesson period. 3.4 Techniques of Questioning There are certain guidelines to follow when asking questions in a teaching situation. These guidelines enhance maximum benefit in using the questioning technique in the classroom. Ask the question before you point to a learner to answer. Spread your questions evenly across the class. Give the learners time to answer. Avoid leading questions. Questions must not be ambiguous but clear and to the point. Avoid irrelevant questions. |
