Abstract

Effective teaching promotes a highly interactive environment. Creating and maintaining that kind of atmosphere is very complex. While interesting and developmentally appropriate content, tasks, activities and materials spark students' curiosity and set a stage for learning, the actions of teachers orchestrate the necessary interaction that results in desired conceptual understanding. My editorial in the last issue of ISTJ stressed the teacher's crucial role in helping students learn through inquiry. Here I will focus on one aspect of that role – questioning.
