They are the prime means of finding out what pupils think and to get them to think in the first place. And there are a range of techniques you can use to develop questioning skills. Here are five ways to avoid that frustrating situation in which you ask a question and receive absolutely no response: Avoid questions that require a single, direct answer, such as: “What is the capital of Mongolia?”
Discussion Toolkit. The Whole Class Feedback Guide. Tools for educators / Problems of the month The Problems of the Month are non-routine math problems designed to be used schoolwide to promote a problem-solving theme at your school.
Each problem is divided into five levels of difficulty, Level A (primary) through Level E (high school), to allow access and scaffolding for students into different aspects of the problem and to stretch students to go deeper into mathematical complexity.

Benjamin Bloom Handbook on Formative and Summative Evaluation of Student Learning Bloom’s original taxonomy (developed in the 1950's) divided the way people learn into three domains: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. In the 1990's Lorin Anderson, a former student of Bloom revised the original cognitive domain. The original Bloom's taxonomy is still relevant, but under the new revisions the six major categories of the cognitive domain were changed from noun to verb format and some subcategories were reorganized. The revised taxonomy is preferred by some educators as a more authentic tool for curriculum planning, instructional delivery, and assessment. Using Student Growth Percentiles.

What strategy can double student learning gains? According to 250 empirical studies, the answer is formative assessment, defined by Bill Younglove as "the frequent, interactive checking of student progress and understanding in order to identify learning needs and adjust teaching appropriately. " Unlike summative assessment, which evaluates student learning according to a benchmark, formative assessment monitors student understanding so that kids are always aware of their academic strengths and learning gaps. Meanwhile, teachers can improve the effectiveness of their instruction, re-teaching if necessary.
"When the cook tastes the soup," writes Robert E. Stake, "that's formative; when the guests taste the soup, that's summative.

The length of the congruent sides does not change, but the angle between the two congruent sides will increase, and the base will stretch. Initially, the area of the triangle will increase, but eventually the area will decrease, continuing until the triangle collapses.
