As far as I go into the courses I get acquainted with many things such as
concept checking( I remember that as consolidating). It is a way to make sure that my students have understood what I have been explaining. It is about asking the right questions.Most importantly, this means not asking yes/no questions. Instaed I'll need to ask questions where the students must have understood to give me the right answers. These might be :
- Who .....
- What did .....
- Where did.....
- When did....
- Why did...
- How did....
Although concept checking will become second nature in time, at the beginning when I first try this it's good to prepare the questions beforehand to make sure what I am going to ask is actually useful and will tell me about the students' level of understanding.
