36. PROVOCATIVE RIDER (Questioning, Discussion)
Description: Similar to Tag Questioning, the Provocative Rider is a questioning technique that usually elicits an emotional response.
Application: Apply this teacher technique when students seem to be disengaged with the topic.
Process: Ask students a question and follow up with the provocative rider such as “Who must register for Selective Service (the question)? I am told that all women must register as well (the rider).” “Which group wrote this science lab report? Did they even look at the result of the tests?”
