Why and how do we ask questions?
How do we ask questions?
Why do we ask questions?
So as you can see, our assignment for this week was about asking questions. And Madam said something very notable about asians, and how we, as children were taught not to ask questions. One because we are such a large groups sometimes, compared to western countries like Australia or USA. And it actually makes a lot of sense now as to why that kid who'll keep asking the teacher "Why?" will get punished and made to stand at the back of the class. We were taught not to ask. And it is pretty sad to think of it and how we bring it all the way to this level of education and maybe even further to when we start working (again, for me). So there is this twiddla.com virtual sharing whiteboard (since we already have a blackboard- see what i did there) and we were to give pointers on why and how we ask questions and above are some of my examples how. And i feel that a question does not necessarily has to be replied with an answer. It can be replied with a question and it can go back and forth and that is when you know that is an interesting conversation and one where you can definitely learn something from. I myself ask quite a lot of questions and sometimes just to satisfy my curiosity as a being and sometimes obviously to satisfy my doubts and wonders. So there you go, and hey i'll finish it with a questionable haiku (rhetorical or not, you tell me).
Do you not see it?
Should one keep going or stop?
What would you have done?
