This course really challenges you to get out of the monotony of your normal routine and be very intentional in the questions you ask with the intention of promoting thinking from your students. We all know this is good practice, but when we’re in the daily grind, sometimes that intentionality gets thrown to the wayside. This course offers practical examples that are easy to fit into your curriculum.
