Students create and submit questions to the class about what they would like to know more about a topic.
For example:
- about what they would like to know on a topic,
- to ask the lecturer or other students in order to assess their learning,
- or to demonstrate their learning, misconceptions, or areas they would like to further explore.
The class can work on these together in a session or use them to prepare for the next session.
