Teaching as Inquiry
Will a focus on my deliberate acts of teaching enhance student discourse?
What are my listening skills like?
How long am I waiting for the answer?
What kinds of questions am I asking?
What kinds of questions am I asking?
How am I using student response to clarify and inform the next line of questioning?
What does effective student discourse look and sound like?
What type of environment do I need to create to elicit student thinking/discussion?
How can I develop risk taking?
What are possible strategies?
Is there professional reading that I need to do?
Who can model this for me?
