According to Suurtamm (2017), "Opportunities to elicit student thinking can be incorporated into lessons, even in the planning stages, for instance, by thinking ahead of time of the kinds of questions that could be asked to make student thinking visible. These questions could occur in a whole class discussion, in individual interviewing or in conferencing with small groups as they work on problem-solving" (p. 1). Much of the discussion around asking questions is based on making thinking visible. Clark (2017) suggests several ways to make that happen, firstly recommending the Connect-Extend-Challenge routine.
