Students Learn from Inquiry, Not Interrogation

I just read this brief article on Middle Web and it provided interesting insight into how students perceive questioning in the classroom. "Very few students understand questioning as a process for collaborative exploration of ideas and a means by which teachers and students alike are able to find out where they are in their learning and decide on next steps." The article goes on to describe quality questioning concepts. 

This article also resonated with me as a way to transform student's perception of questioning in the classroom: "eliminate hand-raising by volunteers as the method of choice for student answering – and substitute this with response structures that engage all class members in thinking and coming up with their best responses."
