Questioning Skill 2

0 komentar


In giving questions to your students, you have to avoid the following habits:
  1. to repeat your question, if the teacher repeat his/her own question the student's attention will decrease.
  2. to repeat student's answer, in one case it will reinforce student but if it become a habit of repeating the answer it will waste the time and the student will not pay attention to his friend's answer because it will be repeated by the teacher.
  3. to answer your own question, if the teacher answers his own question before the student get opportunity to answer the question it will frustrate the student and reduce his attention.
  4. question that let the students to answer in chorus all together.
  5. using double question.
And the following are the components of basic question
  1. Question should be briefly and clearly stated.
  2. Structuring (giving reference) before giving a question sometime the teacher need to give a question as the reference for student's answer.
  3. Focusing the scope of teaching material could be large/narrow. The teacher can narrow down to a specific one.
    Re-directing in answering a question. The teacher can ask more than one student in turn by means of completing/correcting the answer.
  4. Spreading, to increase student's involvement in the teacher spread the question randomly. Different questions are given to different student.
  5. To give enough time to think, give enough time for all student to compose the answer before the teacher asks one student to answer the question.
