DESCRIPTION:Asking questions is a practice used by most instructors in most
  classrooms\; however\, asking good questions is a skill that takes both c
 areful planning and lots of practice. This workshop is designed to help cu
 ltivate that skill. What makes a good question? The answer depends\, in pa
 rt\, on the circumstances. In this workshop\, we will discuss some of the 
 many considerations that go into determining how to make the best use of c
 lassroom questioning\, including timing\, class size\, types of students\,
  and class goals. We will also talk about some of the many functions a que
 stion can serve.  We will also spend time thinking about strategies for fi
 elding student responses\, including what to do when students do not give 
 the desired response. Ultimately\, this workshop is an opportunity to thin
 k and work collaboratively with your peers in an effort to identify which 
 questioning strategies will work best for you in your classroom and conver
 t classroom questions from mere 'filler' into effective teaching tools.\n
