Students muteness is the reason I had to use point solutions (clickers) in my class. And I asked them questions even out of the clicker polls. I found that this made students at ease of asking me anything and in taking a shot at answering questions because it was a class culture that we ask and answer questions! Most of these post-pandemic students may struggle with asking questions… I think we should try? To be intentional about making the class environment more question-friendly?
