This is an interesting work that will allow you to reflect on your own teaching practice: You need to ask the right questions to allow your students to think, though not so many, since they in turn must ask questions frequently in order to learn effectively. It sounds like an easy process, but you must be prepared in advance to optimize it. This book can give you some essential ideas for doing so and is complete with appropriate procedures for carrying out recitation and discussion activities in class.
