Using a variety of questioning techniques helps to challenge learners, involve them actively in the learning process, and monitor their progress. This approach engages students by prompting them to think critically and actively participate in the lesson, thereby ensuring they understand the material and can apply it effectively.

When a learner provides an incorrect answer that has nothing to do with the question asked, the best approach is to rephrase the question completely and ask it again. This strategy helps to ensure that the learner understands the question more clearly and gives them another opportunity to provide the correct answer. Rephrasing can also help other learners who might have been confused by the original wording. Asking another learner to answer or repeating the question as originally stated may not address the underlying confusion, and reprimanding the learner is not a constructive approach.

Using humor can be an effective way to shift the mood of the learners from negative to positive. It helps to break the ice and can make the environment more conducive to learning. By creating a positive and relaxed atmosphere, learners are more likely to engage and participate actively in the class.

To demonstrate a technical topic that requires a specific procedure, the best approach is to show the learners via a desktop sharing demonstration. This method allows the instructor to visually guide the learners through the exact steps needed, ensuring clarity and understanding. Options like brainstorming, role-playing, or holding an open discussion may engage learners but are not as effective for showing precise technical procedures.
