In whole-class questioning, a few confident learners dominate responses. Which practice most directly broadens participation without lowering question quality?

Correct answer: Use wait time with structured response distribution. Wait time with structured response distribution gives more learners time and opportunity to answer while keeping questions challenging.

• Accept answers only from volunteers. Accepting only volunteers favours the confident learners who already dominate.
• Reduce questioning and rely mainly on explanation. Reducing questioning removes opportunities to participate.
• Award marks primarily for speed of response. Awarding marks for speed favours the fastest responders.
