"Getting beyond just answering questions" is supposed to serve as reminder of the point of teaching. I want to do more than just answer questions, and I want my students to do more, as well. What that means, exactly, is still to be discovered.
The state of things now in my classroom is still much farther advanced than it was say five years ago. Most of the student learning happens when they ask each other questions, or when they answering questions designed to lead them in developing understanding. But it seems like there are other places to go. I need to think on this more.
Time log: Monday, 5 am to 5 pm at school. 12hours.
