Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

one of the reasons that pupils or students fail (at school, university, center etc.) is slippage and lack of basics of questioning techniques. After our investigations more than 60% of teachers in the DRC (experienced and fresh teachers) face this dilemma and this handicaps the improvement of teaching. Questioning in teaching and learning not only encourages students to think critically; but it also allows teachers to assess whether their students understand a particular concept. This process requires the teacher to be able to come up with the right questions in order to get students to provide answers that are both relevant and of high standard. If you do not ask the right questions, you do not get the right answers. A question asked in the right way often points to its own answer. According to Brandon Cline (2018), ¿while asking questions may seem a simple task, it is perhaps the most powerful tool we possess as teachers.¿ Through questioning techniques, we have the power to push our students¿ thinking to the highest levels. We have the power to create challenging, rigorous tasks that help our students grow academically, think deeply, and spark their curiosities.
