What is Danielson Using Questioning and Discussion Techniques.
Worth a Thousand Words
A teacher shows students a picture and asks them to come up with two or three questions based on what they see?
The teacher’s questions are of low cognitive challenge, with single correct responses, and are asked in rapid succession. Interaction between the teacher and students is predominantly recitation style, with the teacher mediating all questions and answers; the teacher accepts all contributions without asking students to explain their reasoning. Only a few students participate in the discussion.

Test Yourself
What is an activity where the student writes a question about content that the teacher can use for the real test.
The teacher’s questions lead students through a single path of inquiry, with answers seemingly determined in advance. Alternatively, the teacher attempts to ask some questions designed to engage students in thinking, but only a few students are involved. The teacher attempts to engage all students in the discussion, to encourage them to respond to one another, and to explain their thinking, with uneven results.

An activity where a student reads a paragraph then formulates a question that demonstrates knowledge about the main idea.
While the teacher may use some low-level questions, he poses questions designed to promote student thinking and understanding. The teacher creates a genuine discussion among students, providing adequate time for students to respond and stepping aside when doing so is appropriate. The teacher challenges students to justify their thinking and successfully engages most students in the discussion, employing a range of strategies to ensure that most students are heard.

Jeopardy
Teacher provides the answers and the students write answers to go along with them
The teacher uses a variety or series of questions or prompts to challenge students cognitively, advance highlevel thinking and discourse, and promote metacognition. Students formulate many questions, initiate topics, challenge one another’s thinking, and make unsolicited contributions. Students themselves ensure that all voices are heard in the discussion.
