LDS.org - Ensign Article - Questions, the Heart of Learning and Teaching - 0 views

  • “Some questions invite inspiration. Great teachers ask those. That may take just a small change of words, an inflection of the voice. Here is a question that might not invite inspiration: ‘How is a true prophet recognized?’ That question invites an answer which is a list, drawn from memory, of the scriptures and the words of living prophets. … “But we could ask the question this way, with just a small difference: ‘When have you felt you were in the presence of a prophet?’ That will invite individuals to search their memories for feelings. After asking, we might wait for a moment before calling on someone to respond. Even those who do not speak will be thinking of spiritual experiences. That will invite the Holy Ghost.”1
  • “The major role of a teacher is to prepare the way so that the [students] will have a spiritual experience with the Lord. … All true gospel teaching is done by the Holy Ghost. … We must be careful not to get in the way. … The most important thing a teacher can do is to help the student feel the Spirit of the Lord.”
  • student participation can fill about half of the lesson time

  • inspired questions that will help your students discover gospel principles for themselves.
  • 1. Yes/No questions. (Will prayer help us develop faith?) 2. Questions that require only one- or two-word answers. (Which principle of the gospel is faith?) 3. Questions with obvious answers. (Is faith in Jesus Christ an important principle of the gospel?) 4. Clichéd questions. (How can we use faith in our daily lives?) 5. Controversial questions. (Have you ever lived contrary to the prophet’s counsel and been blessed in your actions?)
  • answer to the question must be found in the material being studied

    And it's actually good music! Some of you may have already found this, but I was excited to find it yesterday as I was looking for music for the background of my video. There are different categories of use, some you can use and change, some you can use but not change, etc. Check it out, even if you're just looking for some new music in your life.

    I first came accross this in the BYU Museum of Art. The plaque described the artist as "is a video and electronic media artist who critiques popular media genres by humorously subverting their intended messages and exposing our engagement with their often juvenile content...The artist presents us with a voyeuristic world in which alternative personas can be digitally appropriated. His work poses the question: Can one find meaningful relationships in a virtual world?" Besides being an example of using technology to create art, I like the questions it raises. Do you think that technology can replace meaningful interactions?

    A good example of a social studies video project from Brittany. The music gets too loud and distracting at one point, but if the audio was improved, I like how she gave a good analysis of a social studies topic and then showed good examples.
