I think too that students fear asking questions because they don't want to appear "stupid". In reality other students have the same questions. This is my very first Toot bu the way...
@pandian Many teachers do not instil understanding, only learning facts. Their students cannot reason and take themselves forward and enjoy it.
@Drosmel Yes and the way we do teaching, they are too keen to get it done and see this is delaying shoving the facts in front of students. Exam results are far too important.

@SteelFolk @Drosmel I am a big fan of open book exams where you are not asking to regurgitate facts but rather apply whatever we talked about and apply it to a practical situation. I think students appreciate this type of assessment because it's much closer to what they'll experience in real life.
