ABSTRACT

Questioning strategies can be described using behaviorist theory. The teacher's question is the stimulus, the student's answer is the response, and the evaluation by the teacher is the feedback. Teaching that makes use of questioning strategies can also be explained using two other views of learning: individual and social constructivism. The power of questions to support student learning can be amplified by using the powerful strategy called Wait Time. Wait Time requires teachers to be momentarily silent. Teachers use Wait Time One when they ask a question and allow a pause before calling on a student and after a student answers. Wait Time Two is another pause used by the teacher that happens in the moments immediately after a student response. Science discussions are very important episodes within science teaching. The instructional conversation framework is a collection of ten strategies that together describe an effective way to incorporate English language learners into whole class conversations.
