QuotesTeachers: 80 questions per hour. +All students combined: 2 questions per hour (Dillon, 1988)

A teacher asks about 1000 questions per week. (Kerry, 1982)

Questions: 80% comprehension; 15% management; 5% higher level. (Redfield & Rousseau, 1981)

Why the predominance of lower level questions?1. The necessity for students to know facts before they progress to speculation or high levels of thought.2. The curriculum is by nature fact-oriented rather than thought-oriented; and if teachers want their students to "learn the curriculum," they will naturally focus on factual questions.3. Teachers who lack the necessary skills to formulate

questions that require higher level thought. (Gall, 1970)

Questions: 60% require factual recall; 20% require thinking; 20% are procedural. (Gall, 1984)

“Good answer”

“Good thinking.”“Wonderful response.”“Interesting thinking.”
