The topic of questioning resides at the very core of any science program. Thus the reason for devoting an entire videodisc to this topic.
Teachers use questions throughout the day for a variety of reasons.
However, the focus of this section will be on the use of questions during the act of instruction. It is recommended that the instructor use either a remote control or bar code reader to access specific chapters or frames while introducing a discussion on questioning. As you become familiar with the content of this videodisc, you will begin to see many additional applications, other than those suggested in the following pages. Keep in mind that the classroom teachers found on the videodisc did not stage the science activities for the specific purpose of teaching about questions. Instead, the contents of the videodisc were chosen because of their exemplary teaching skills.
