Questioning in the classroom is the anchor of effective teaching, learning & assessment. Questions also have the power & potential to shape classroom culture. Subtle, carefully considered & crafted questions can guide expectations, manage behaviour & ensure every learner is involved and thinking hard, something I explore in my upcoming book Questioning for Teaching & Learning. Available to pre-order now! amazon.co.uk/Little-Guide-Te…
